ART FROM THE INSIDE

We’re Honored to Be Part of This Conversation

We’re grateful to see Art from the Inside featured in a recent Star Tribune commentary by Mark Osler, who writes powerfully about the extraordinary creative talent that exists inside our prisons and why those voices matter to the future of the arts.

The article recognizes the work AFTI is doing to support incarcerated and formerly incarcerated artists and highlights our vision of creating a dedicated space where returning artists can create, work, and thrive.

For us, this is about much more than art. It’s about seeing people beyond their convictions, creating pathways for transformation, and making sure that the creative voices that emerge from some of the most difficult places in our society have a place in the world.

We’re grateful to Mark Osler for recognizing this work and, most importantly, for helping bring greater attention to the artists whose stories and creativity are at the heart of what we do.

Good JuJu Notecard by Jennifer Marx

"Art is my muse. It makes me feel like I can be a part of something bigger. Something more. Art gives me a sense of purpose. I see myself as strong, free, independent and blessed. I have taken my hardships and turned them into something beautiful."

Free by MJ

16” x 20”

Medium: Acrylic, watercolor

When I was given the theme idea for our final project, the first thought that came to mind was how art frees my heart. Free from sorrow, sadness, anger and fear. From the prisons I put myself in mentally and physically. Free from holding on to the pain death has carved in my life. My heart says I'm free and I believe it.

Silent Dialogue by Courtney "Blanco" Ocegueda

16” x 20”

Medium: Acrylic

The inspiration for this piece is personal life struggles and experiences. I've had a lot of pain and loss in my life and made bad decisions. But I've also been blessed with a beautiful daughter and great family. Throughout everything I've experienced I've never taken the time to dissect what I've been through, who I was, who I am, and who I want to be...my heart has been through more than me. . .
