After running Australia’s first ever international prison art exhibition in Sydney in May last year, it was great to be able to finally tour the works to another city. We plan to bring the art to a new city each year.
The Paper Chained International art exhibition features over a hundred artworks from incarcerated people in Australia and overseas. The exhibition toured to Brisbane in March as part of the Beyond the Bars exhibition organised by Green Fox Studios.
Paper Chained magazine is aiming to tour our international art exhibition to a different city each year, with the next exhibition to be in Newcastle, New South Wales, in February next year.
If you have any artworks you would like displayed at that exhibition, or just in our magazine in general, please send them to us, or write to us for more information.
We cannot assist with getting your art to us, but after the exhibition we can post it to your family or friends on the outside, as prisons will likely not accept artworks other than drawings on paper being posted back in. Otherwise, we can just hold on to your art for future exhibitions – it is completely up to you.
Incarcerated people in Queensland are advised to seek approval from Corrections to be part of the exhibition, as you may face internal discipline otherwise.

Melbourne’s Pentridge Prison still holds powerful memories for many thousands of people. The prison’s towering bluestone walls were an imposing presence in Coburg, and almost all Melburnians have a story to tell about this notorious place.
The 2024 Paris Olympics started with a splash (literally). The Opening Ceremony featured 90 boats, filled with country teams waving flags, all floating down a rainy river Seine, as the crowd of 300,000 cheered from the riverbanks.
I've read thousands of novels over the last fifty-odd years and not one of them was romance, but while I'm trying new things – like paraplegia and prison – I might as well add in a romance novel to my life experience.
