Prison Landscapes brings together over 100 images of prison inmates representing themselves in front of visiting room backdrops. This little-known and largely physically inaccessib le genre of painting and portraiture is normally seen only by inmates, visitors, and prison employees. Created specifically for escapism and self-representation, the paintings of tropical beaches, fantastical waterfalls, mountain vistas, and cityscapes invite sitters to perform fantasies of freedom.
