A Poor Imitation of Death is a complex and collaborative narrative: the youth’s own writings, drawings and words combine with my photographs to create a unique and authentic ‘voice’ that speaks about the realities of youth in prison. It tells a harsh story: full of despair, raw emotion and injustice but also of incredible inner strength and huge potential for change.
Ara Oshagan’s work focuses on the exploration of the ambiguities of identity and the crossing of physical, cultural and linguistic boundaries. Oshagan lives and works among disrupted and marginalized communities—communities that have been uprooted, dislocated and relocated and scattered again.
