A journey on the human being, on the emotional and psychological state of those without freedom.

Valerio Bispuri’s journey through Italian prisons is the second part of a long journey that started in South American prisons. It is a journey on the human being and on the emotional and psychological state of those without freedom.

Prisoners is a photographic work but also an anthropological one that starts with an investigation that the photographer has carried out for twenty years on lost freedom through prison, drugs, social exclusion, physical or mental problems.
