Prisoners

http://csac.buffalo.edu/mirrors/mirrorsimages.html

Mirrors. Photographs from the Arkansas State Prison 1915-1937.
found and printed by Bruce Jackson

I find myself returning to this site again and again. There is so much character in these faces, and the circumstances in which the pictures were taken add a rivetting quality of mystery to each of them. The fact these pictures were developed from old and often damaged negatives adds a touch of spontaneous artistry to many of the pictures.

Re: Prisoners

The pictures moved me whilst veiwing them many of the peoples eyes were filled with such sadness and remorse, a little bit disturbing too.
Thanks for posting them.

Re: Prisoners

That's some great stuff man. The expressions all suggest stories begging to be told that are instantly speculated by the viewer.
