The area of eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) has been given great attention during the last decade, due to the obscurity that exists on how a data-driven model makes a decision. One idea in order to make Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems more explainable is to use cognitive methods that humans use when reasoning. For instance, argumentation is a common method that humans use when they explain an opinion. In this paper, we introduce a framework that produces the visualization of an explanation from an argumentation dialogue, and can be easily understood by any user. More specifically, we utilize the argumentation tree that Gorgias returns for the acceptability of an argument, to create a graph that represents the explanation of the argumentation tree.
