“Stone walls do not a prison make, Nor iron bars a cage; Minds innocent and quiet take That for an hermitage; If I have freedom in my love And in my soul am free, Angels alone, that soar above, Enjoy such liberty.” - 𝐑𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞, 𝐓𝐨 𝐀𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐚, 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧 • Loved this work by @stevencogle at the reception for @theartofelysium. The yellow background really does it for me as I accentuates the heat that harassed slaves and continues to overtake prison workers who work outside. I think of places like #AngolaPrison and other institutions that still have jails that resemble plantations and seem to promote slave labor. This work makes me revisit and think about the #13thAmendment and what it really means to be free. I also look at the faces of the subjects. They almost appear skeleton-like as if they’ve already “died” under the current circumstances. This piece was deep in so many levels. • #ArtAboveReality #LookWhatArtFound #Inspiring #Art #Curator #ContemporaryArt #FineArt #ArtMarket #ContemporaryPainting #CollectArt #ContemporaryArtCollectors #LiveWithArt #ArtConsultant #ShotOniPhone #ContemporaryArtist #ArtistsOnInstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/By-c0KqHCT6/?igshid=5spxvn1jlnjv

Stopped into @artandpractice to check out ‘Slavery: The Prison Industrial Complex’ photographs by #KeithCalhoun and #ChandraMcCormick. I RECOMMEND seeing the #DeanaLawson show at @theundergroundmuseum first before seeing this show. It’s something about seeing the #photographers from these shows y’all to each other in their work. These photos spoke to #AngolaPrison and the effect the 13th amendment has had on the inmates in #Louisiana. They’ve photographed life at the prison for 3 decades! Angola hosts most than 6,000 inmates and more than 75% are #AfricanAmerican. These works have helped to inform #activism and increase treatment on behalf of the inmates and their families. POWERFUL!

Experiencing some of the more serious aspects of Angola Prison is an eye opening experience. I will never forget what I saw today. #angolaprison #misslouisiana #MissLAryssa2017 #teamcharlotte #believe #BeYOUnique (at Angola, Louisiana)
