Mikhael Subotzky ~ Die Vier Hoeke

Mikhael Subotzky’s photographs offer an at times bleak vision of contemporary South Africa through its prisons. Die Vier Hoeke – which translates as ‘the four corners’ – is prison-gang terminology for the process every prisoner inevitably goes through when incarcerated. Die Vier Hoeke was Subotzky’s graduation project and has won him widespread international acclaim.
