Incarcerated artists are individuals who create art while serving time in prison. Their work often reflects their personal experiences, emotions, and the challenges of life behind bars. Many use various mediums, such as painting, drawing, and writing, to express themselves and cope with their circumstances. Art programs in prisons aim to provide inmates with creative outlets and skills. These programs can foster rehabilitation and personal growth, helping incarcerated artists find a sense of purpose. Some of their works gain recognition outside prison walls, contributing to discussions about mass incarceration and the transformative power of art.
