Sticking Point is a data visualisation project realised as a live animation or a static print. The sections of the constitutions of seventy-five different countries describing rights, freedoms, duties and obligations of citizens were analysed to identify distinct or significant words. These words are arranged in a circular graph for each country and words which appear in more than one of these circles are connected by lines. Constitutions represent a way for nations to publicly define their ethical values. The project aims to promote consideration of both the differences and similarities between those values.
