Incorrigibles is a transmedia project that tells the stories of ‘incorrigible’ girls in New York State over the last 100 years. Drawing on the personal narratives of incarcerated young women, the work investigates juvenile justice and social services for young women, and takes form as a book, exhibition, and web platform.
