Novus, the University of Hull and HMP Humber have collaborated on an exhibition titled I am the Coyote, which aims to show the power of art as a rehabilitation tool in prisons over 45 years.
I am the Coyote includes art produced from the Special Unit 74 and HMP Humber’s GRAFT Studio, the largest art college in the UK prison sector and a unique space where prisoners are able to focus on creativity and its benefits. Colour photographs document the group thinking and creative process as well as the experiential teaching strategies.
The exhibition has been commissioned as part of the University’s Culture Campus initiative and is on show at the Brynmor Jones Library.
Our vision is to wholeheartedly embrace provocative topics and encourage discussion and debate across our campus. This exhibition will do just that and we couldn’t be more delighted.
Marianne Lewsley-Stier, Head of Culture Campus at the University of Hull
The exhibition is accompanied by a series of free workshops, screenings and debates.
