Mikhael Subotzky made Die Vier Hoeke during his final year at Michaelis School of Fine Art. This body of work was a culmination of the three months he spent working at Pollsmoor Prison. Here, in this overcrowded, gang-run correctional facility, Subotzky taught photography workshops and built a rapport with the inmates and staff. Taken from gang terminology, the series title Die Vier Hoeke means four corners and refers to not only the physical space but also the gang law that governs the prison. To create this work, Subotsky has smashed the reinforced glass, drawing our attention to how the photograph acts as an intermediary the representational and physical world.
