James Yaya Hough discusses a series of line drawings and watercolors that delineate the economy of desire within America’s carceral system

James Yaya Hough discusses his development as an artist while incarcerated. On view at JTT from May 1 through June 11 is a solo show of work by Hough titled "Invisible Life". The show features a series of line drawings and watercolors that delineate the economy of desire that emerges from within America’s carceral system. All are drafted on what Hough refers to as “institutional paper:” any state-issued documents required to process an inmate’s daily activities from weekly cafeteria menus to questionnaires for inmates to complete on triplicate copy paper. In today's episode Hough discusses the environment from which this body of work emerged.
