Made over the course of his six-year incarceration and reflecting the ingenuity of an artist working without access to traditional materials, Jesse Krimes’s (2020 Awardee) immersive installations are presented alongside nineteenth-century photographs from The Met collection by the French criminologist Alphonse Bertillon, raising questions about the perceived neutrality of our systems of identification and the hierarchies of social imbalance they create and reinscribe.
