Publisher Note

This photobook is the result of the participatory photography project TRANSPARING THE GOAL organized by the Setba Foundation in the women's unit of the Brians 1 Penitentiary Center in Sant Esteve Sesrovires (Barcelona), in collaboration with the artist and activist Marta Fàbregas. For two years, more than sixty women inmates in prison have participated in photography workshops, discovering a new form of expression and doing empowering work, which has improved their self-esteem and image.

Women are the forgotten ones in the prison system, they only represent 7% of the prison population, having fewer facilities and resources than men. This project is a declaration of principles and this book is the first in the collection. It also includes two reports, one by Camila Oliveira currently in third grade and who has been mentored by Marta Fàbregas, and another by Sofía Kyprisli, who remains in Brians and who has had photojournalist Sandra Balsells as a mentor. The Foundation wants to contribute to social transformation through culture, a powerful tool that always saves us.
