Amares Azielos is a collaborative experimental photography project aimed at young inmates of the Youth Penitentiary Center and young local and international volunteers linked to various organizations in the metropolitan area of Barcelona. The project is divided into two actions.

On the one hand, training is offered in alternative photographic processes such as cyanotype. In this sense, it seeks to work on shared creation processes based on the group's personal experiences. The project aims to bring down the blue color of the sky, the thoughts and emotions that float over the prison space, to land them on different supports that are exhibited in ALBUM and OFF PANORAMIC contemporary photography festivals, accompanying all the participants throughout the production process and public presentation. 

On the other hand, the project brings a new exhibition space at the CPJ hosting female and LGBTIQ+ photographers with a significant career: Laia Abril, Irene Zottola, Clara Gassull, Marta G. Cardellach and Cecília Coca. A non-hierarchical or hegemonic exhibition philosophy is proposed here, against the museum parameters. For this reason, it is possible to interact with the exhibited materials and these remain in the Center for several weeks after the first open presentation with the artists. The aim is being able to consolidate an exhibition space all year long and a group of volunteers who get to know the environment so that they can develop their own proposals together with the interns.
