摄影师亚历山大·巴格达萨里安花费八个月时间跟踪记录了一所因儿童长时间关押在牢房而受到批评的监狱系统中儿童的日常生活。这些儿童的牢房对我来说是难以拍摄的地方,因为它们既非个人化又亲密。一旦进入,你很快就会发现自己在原地打转,无处可去。目光只能落在构成空间的极少数元素上:一扇窗户、牢房栏杆、一张简陋的床、一块充当书桌的木板,有时还有一本书或几幅画。

Photographer Alexandre Bagdassarian spent eight months following the daily lives of children in a prison system criticised for the long time spent in cells The cells of the children were difficult places for me to photograph because they are impersonal and intimate at the same time. Once inside, you quickly find yourself going in circles, with nowhere to go. Your gaze settles on the very few elements that make up the space: a window, cell bars, a rudimentary bed, a plank serving as a desk, and sometimes a book or a few drawings.

有时,由于人手短缺,一名年轻人每天可能在牢房里度过长达23小时。这一点以及教育和体育活动的极低参与度受到了欧洲防止酷刑委员会的批评。牢房窗户直接俯瞰监狱操场,每天强制户外活动一小时。

Sometimes, due to staff shortages, a young person may spend as much as 23 hours a day in their cell. This and the low levels of access to educational and sports activities have been criticised by Europe’s Committee for the Prevention of Torture. The cell windows directly overlook the prison yard, a mandatory one-hour stop each day
