This multimedia exhibition took place at the Galleries of Justice in Nottingham in December 2003. Soft Touch worked with the group in prison whilst the National Centre for Citizenship & the Law, based at the Galleries of Justice, and Apt Arts worked with the Nottingham group.
The Glen Parva inmates who worked on the project created images, poetry, rap music and voice recordings which convey the reality of life inside. This work was created as a response to questions about prison life which were sent to them in the form of poster designs and video by the Nottingham group.
“This is an excellent project for vulnerable teenagers. It helps them to look beyond a life of crime and prison. It shows there is more to life than crime and keeping up this big bad boy image”. Glen Parva inmate
The project was funded by the Clore Duffield Foundation and the Baring Foundation.
