Uni from the Inside: Prisoner Art
07 September – 01 December 2013
At present there are 33 prisoners studying for an art degree inside Western Australia’s prisons. This exhibition will focus on what it’s like to study while also serving time, and will highlight the works produced by these students.
Participating in prison-run art programs can be life-changing, even if you’re not studying for a higher degree. The exhibition will also include works by current and former inmates whose art-making practice does not fall within the area of formal study.
