Photographer Mikhael Subotzky has a new body of work entitled "Die Vier Hoeke". The series of photos documents the lives in side the walls of South Africa's prisons. The effects of apartheid and colonialism have severely crippled the natives in the region and just as in many cultures, the end result can be seen in it's prisons. The prisons in SOuthAfrica are severely overcrowded and understaffed, leading to unfathomable living conditions. The 2 part piece can be seen on Subtzky's website here.
