Prison culture and heritage: Fremantle Prison Wall paintings and their artists

这是一个令人兴奋和创新的项目，它利用AHRC资助的大型项目中使用的历史数据和图像来共同创建一系列新的资源，将对广泛的人产生影响。我们将制作一部纪录片，探索弗里曼特尔监狱内如何以及为什么绘制两幅壁画；展示19世纪霍巴特罪犯的照片，展示他们如何仍然保持挑战英国和澳大利亚当代罪犯概念的力量；以及一系列在线和印刷资源，可用于宣传运动和公共信息战略，以增加社会正义，并为被边缘化的人口群体提供诉诸司法的机会。犯罪学家、法医人类学家、电影制作人、文化历史学家、遗产机构和一系列社区利益攸关方之间的这一跨学科创新合作，将开发可用于接触各种不同非学术群体的资源，包括西澳大利亚的土著和白人工人阶级社区；塔斯马尼亚州的系谱学家和家庭历史学家；英国和澳大利亚的本科生和在校学生。这种雄心勃勃的电影制作和数字展览项目并非没有风险，但有可能在英国和澳大利亚产生持久而重大的影响。

This is an exciting and innovative project which takes historical data and images used in a large-scale AHRC-funded project to co-create a new range of resources which will impact upon a wide range of people. We will produce a documentary which explores how and why two wall-murals were painted inside Fremantle Prison, an exhibition of nineteenth-century photographs of convicts in Hobart which shows how they still retain the power to challenge contemporary conceptions of criminals in the UK and Australia; and a set of online and printed resources which can be used tin campaigns and public-information strategies to increase social justice, and access to justice for marginalized sectors of the population. This interdisciplinary innovative collaboration between criminologists, forensic anthropologists, filmmakers, cultural historians, heritage bodies, and a range of community-stakeholders, will develop resources which can be used to engage a wide range of different non-academic groups, including indigenous and white working-class communities in Western Australia; genealogists and family historians in Tasmania; undergraduates and school-students in both the UK and Australia. This kind of ambitious film-making and digital exhibition project is not without risk but has the potential to create a lasting and significant impact in both the UK and Australia.
