A joint intiative between the Department of Justice and the Fremantle Prison is in its final year before renovations take over the art space, as prisoners say the art program has helped to change their life.
The Indianapolis Art Center is bringing art classes and exhibitions to a new space called the Hillside Art Center just north of downtown. The inaugural exhibition will feature the work of local artist Gary Gee. WFYI s Taylor Bennett spoke with Gee about his latest shows called Ground Breaking / Breaking Ground.
Featuring over 350 artworks created by more than 320 artists, The Torch’s annual exhibition, Confined 12, is its largest to date. All of the artists in the Victorian not-for-profit organisation’s show are Indigenous and either in prison or recently released.
The exhibition and the program that precedes it allows them to be seen not as “criminals” or “offenders”, but as people of value, proud Indigenous men and women, citizens and artists.
Bringing about this identity change is critical for exiting the cycle of crime and prison. It’s a difficult and challenging process, but people willing to engage with the art produced can make a big difference.
