The Evasioni project originated in 2012 through three creative writing and testimonial collection workshops. These workshops engaged around fifty inmates from both Medium Security and High Security sections at the Rodolfo Morandi Penitentiary in Saluzzo (Cuneo), coordinated by Emanuela Savio.

Prison is an uncomfortable, challenging, rejected reality, yet always of great relevance.

In prison, the desire to tell one’s own story arises from the will to reaffirm one’s existence, not just as a prisoner but as an individual.

To reconnect with others, to delve deeper and to understand, one must begin to attribute to every human being their story, emotions and dreams.
