Gaining the trust of mothers in an Argentine prison
Tagged: latina, prison
In December 2004, I started work on a photo essay at Prison 33 in La Plata, southeast of Buenos Aires. I chose a women’s jail because I believed it would be easier for me to get closer to the prisoners, listen to their stories and get to know them.
I was very curious to see what life was like in jail and what sort of women ended up in there.
I had a lot of prejudices when I began, but something changed. I stopped seeing and started observing, and I stopped being a free person and started to become one of them.”*
