Swiss Prison Installation
Therese Pfeifer, an artist and adjunct professor in the
Stephens School of Design and Fashion, exhibited her work
in seven cells of a discontinued Swiss prison in the city
of Thun. Never before in Switzerland has a prison become
a space of artistic engagement.
The commissioned installation, titled “Time, Folded,”
combined video, painting, photography and sculpture to create
the experience of confinement. Pfeifer drew her inspiration
from a set of exchanges with a prisoner in a high-security
detention center. She sought not to probe justice but “time
that is folded, creased and crumpled under the weight of
the prison walls. Here, guilt and solitude flatten the past,
while lifelong sentences prohibit the future.”
Pfeifer painted her own “Last Judgment” and
installed figures that “cast long shadows down the
pasty prison walls.” The show, which was held from
Oct. 24-Nov. 8, was greeted by an enthusiastic and curious
public.
