A group of Melbourne based comic book artists temporarily transform the boxes of the gallery space into cells in order to explore the multitude of non-literal ways a person can be imprisoned. This could mean the prison of the body, the prison of language, various prisons formed by social constructs and, perhaps the most fundamental and inescapable, the prison of self.
