With the election days away, there is no shortage of reflections on American politics and democracy. Photographer Paul Shambroom has a unique view. His “Purpletown” project uses photos to examine the cities and towns most evenly divided politically. We spoke with Shambroom for our series, Art in Action, exploring the intersection of art and democracy and for our arts and culture coverage, CANVAS.
