"'Prison Photography' is a compendium of photographic exercises made by students during the photography class taught by Nicolò DEGIORGIS at the Penal Institution of Bolzano - Bozen, Italy, from 2013 - 2017.
The limits naturally set on photography by an isolated location such as a prison is the key point around which the entire course was based.
Divided into various chapters dedicated to different photographic techniques as: Architecture, Portrait, Fine Art, Still Life, Fashion, Landscape, Light Painting, Nature & Travel, the book encourages the reader to reflect on two things: the role of photography itself and the attempt to escape from the monotony of prison life."
