Each year Koestler Arts, the UK’s best-known prison arts charity looks for a different approach to curate the annual UK Koestler exhibition at Southbank Centre. This year, Koestler Arts wanted a curator who could take entrants’ stories far beyond the page. Another Me is the 12th exhibition produced by Koestler Arts in partnership with London’s Southbank Centre, taking place from 19 September – 3 November 2019. This year, the exhibition has been curated by award-winning musician Soweto Kinch, one of the most exciting and versatile young musicians in both the British jazz and hip-hop scenes. Jazz musician Soweto Kinch visited Koestler Arts, on the grounds of Wormwood Scrubs prison in July this year, and methodically worked his way through 7,610 submissions to this year’s Koestler Awards from across the UK and by UK prisoners
