Too often, people believe drug addiction is a choice.  It is not. Not one person I spoke with wanted to be addicted. It is a circle of hell no one would choose.

I asked people to describe for me the actual urge to use. They shared with me the words of chemicals, for it was the drugs talking, stealing, lying, not the person who had been chemically hijacked. Imprisoned is an audio installation, a symphony really, of sixty-four individual voices describing the power, the imprisonment, of addiction.
