Photo project imprisoned women

Sebastian Derungs

In 2022, 6,310 people were imprisoned in Switzerland, 6% of whom were women. The aim of the series is to make these women visible in their personalities. The women can choose their clothing and makeup for the portrait and its staging. To protect their privacy, the women cannot be identified. Two series have been created so far, and more are planned.
