For nearly ten years, Petersen has worked in confined spaces, with people who have been voluntarily and involuntarily detained in prisons, retirement homes and psychiatric hospitals. His approach is less sociological or documentary than it is intimate and emotional. It has led to a change in the way he takes pictures, especially his work in the psychiatric hospital.
