The I and the We

Curated by Camille Walala and Sarah Ihler-Meyer

29 October – 5 December 2021
Royal Festival Hall, Southbank Centre

After a year of covid-lockdowns, the 2021 Koestler Arts UK exhibition of art, music and writing by people in criminal justice settings was back in Level 1 of Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall presenting around 200 powerful artworks selected from over 6,400 entries to the 2021 Koestler Awards.

French-born, London-based artist Camille Walala and her sister, curator Sarah Ihler-Meyer utilised their unique perspective and creative eye in the curation of artwork made in the UK’s criminal justice system to showcase quirky artworks made of found materials, works full of humour and joy, as well as pieces reflecting on loss, relationships and prison life, all created during the pandemic.

The exhibited artwork illuminated the amazing perseverance many within the criminal justice system have maintained during the challenges imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic, and with limited equipment and space to create. The unique and beautiful pieces, including sculptures carved from prison-issue soap, a dinosaur constructed from scrap paper, a tram and boat painstakingly produced from matchsticks, a painted collage composed of grains of rice and a portrait painted with coffee,were testament to the ingenuity and commitment many managed to bring to their creative practice.

Windmill

Beyond these grilles
behind this door
and walls within my view

I’ve fought my demons
and done my time
ready to start anew.

I’ve used these bricks
to build new walls
and found something true

I’ll rise to freedom
and find my voice
well beyond this view.

Three Ladies

Here sits a man in a room.
It is not his room, but it will have to do for now.
The table at which he sits is not his either,
but it is enough.

On the table, maps of the world
which he reads with enthusiasm and nostalgia,
navigating between memories and dreams,
reliving sights, sounds and intentions.

The maps now have been carefully folded away.
On the table, a collection of belongings;
landmarks in the memory of a life
loved and lost.

Sometimes there are books on the table;
some read, some not, some not yet written.
Thrillers, adventures, autobiographies
echoing his past and his future.

In a moment of weakness, the table bears food;
a veritable feast.
He can remember the tastes
and the internal glow of chilled wine.

Of course, none of it is real,
except the table itself and his imagination.
Although this life is real enough,
and it will have to do for now.

The Dancers

I was in that shadowed, lonely place
(my mind a random wanderer in the night)
then, incredibly, you were there too:

us both
not quite together, but talking,
a phonecall, but next to one another;
we knew each other’s voices.

We said what mattered: my sorrys,
your acceptance, your understanding,
the quiet consolation as overwhelming
as the gentleness of it all

until
with sudden, aching dread I knew:
‚ÄòThis is a dream, isn’t it?’ I said.
The line was dead.

Stepping Out

Random boasting, bullying and abuse,
scratching, banging, screaming,
animal impressions,
keys and chains,
birds,
dogs,
choking code blues,
smashed-up sinks and toilets,
flooding noisy neighbours,
splashing, crying,
laughing,
drones and mobile phones,
loud TVs,
dance music rising inside,
twenty-three and a half hours
for our privileges
to die.

Road to Nowhere

I got the right to be me
I got the right to be loud and proud
I got the right to be queer
I got the right to be here
I got the right to be free
I got the right to be seen

I got the right to be vocal
I got the right to be honest and true
I got the right to be confident
I got the right to be here
I got the right to be free
I got the right to be the last of me.

Not enough days in the year
And not enough years in a lifetime

Alone in a Prison Cell

As I sit alone in my prison
Remembering back to bygone days
I cast my mind back to reflect
Saint Patrick’s Day when I was free
In a rundown bar on O’Connell Street
Me and my girl supped Guinness
Frothy smiling and moustaches listening
To a band singing ‚ÄòMy Lovely Horse’
Outside the sky electric blue
The sun dazzled bright yellow
People stretched as far as I could see
In the streets singing
No shouting or loud speeches
The people sang one song
Loud and proud over and over again
‚ÄòYou’ll Never Walk Alone’
