AN ARREST EXHIBITION CITY MUSEUM OF ART / CHRISTIANIA

In the detention center you find yourself between two states. You are innocent until proven guilty, but still imprisoned
easy. The custody can be extended if the investigation requires it, and you don't know when it will end. You
is, quite paradoxically, more cut off from the outside world in the detention center than in the prison, and there are many inmates
which highlights custody as the most unpleasant part of the overall sentence.
The Danish prisons and detention centers have had problems with lack of space and poor working conditions in many
year. A new large detention center is therefore planned in Greater Copenhagen. We believe that the great arrest, which as out-
approach treats everyone in the same way, is too undifferentiated in relation to the many of remand
challenges. We suggest that instead you make several small detention centers in different places in the city, which utilize them
different locations to differentiate the conditions of custody.
