Cynthia Viera and Pablo San José turn US election data into 'social geometry' art

The artistic collective PSJM, formed by Cynthia Viera and Pablo San José, presents 'American Democracy' at Casa de América in Madrid, transforming US racial, economic, social, and electoral statistics into minimalist paintings. Their method, termed 'social geometry', uses data such as prison populations by race, polls, election results, and poverty indexes to create abstract works. The artists state: 'Our works show data; the criticism will come from the public.' The exhibition invites reflection on contemporary US society through a minimalist aesthetic.
