The detail

A collaboration with the art class inmates at Exeter Prison, HMPos 1.01 was an animation commissioned by Animated Exeter, Exeter Prison, and Spacex Gallery, Exeter. The animation was to be displayed next to a Jodi.org exhibition at Spacex Gallery, which had a great impact on the direction of the storyboard.

Nevertheless, Exeter inmates were able to develop a complex and layered narrative about their experiences.

The group had strong ideas about what they wanted to express through the image of the animation, but also decided that it be made up from nothing but digits or numbers. This not only conveyed their perception of their experience as inmates, but also demonstrated the fractal nature of my work, which continues to explore new forms of mosaic construction through combining individual perspectives in the creation of a single cultural image.
