Dipping in the Kool Aid
Dipping in the Kool Aid grows from an experimental laboratory run by artists working predominantly in Klung Kung Prison, Bali. Among the artists and collaborations included is Djunaidi Kenyut, who invites prisoners to make self-portraits by etching their own facial features onto postcard-size mirrors. Mary Lou Pavlovic's Preserving Life Workshop, undertaken with female prisoners, develops a large wall work featuring flowers and deceased butterflies that are donated by the local butterfly park. Imam Sucahyo creates a large multimedia drawing with his imprisoned friend upon visits to Tuban Prison East Java Prison. In an ongoing project, Elizabeth Gower invites prisoners to create fragile paper collage "Rotations." This incantation of the project includes 365 fragile paper collages made with materials sourced from discarded packaging in the prison cafe.
