Synopsis

An unprecedented national arts collaboration with the inmates and the authors, this project provides the reader with glimpses into the intellect, creative mind, and world of individuals incarcerated in America's prisons. Each contribution has its own voice, its own story, and the need to be told and shared. Volume 1 and 2 are designed as a set: Vol.1 contains full-color art and text. Vol. 2 contains black and white art, poetry, writings and biographies of the inmate contributors in both volumes.

About this title

About the Author

Founder of Reentry Bridge Network, Inc, Carol E. Briney, BAFA, since Feb 2005 has devoted her time, energy, and resources, to working with the diverse community of individuals who are incarcerated in America's prisons. Her vision is threefold: 1) to promote & utilize the art muses for self-expression, healing & growth inside prisons, 2)to provide arts venues for Prisoners to have a voice outside the prison wall thru which they can feel validated as individuals, and 3) to make the outside community aware that America’s prison community is made up of incarcerated individuals, not of steel cell blocks – & most of those individuals will reenter the community. Briney feels that these means will work together to create a real bridge between Prisoners and community, ultimately reducing crime and recidivism in America.
