About this listen

Nathan Paddison spent 13 years of his life in and out of prison for a range of crimes - some small and others violent. But he says art saved him.

Antoinette Lattouf and Nathan went to school together in western Sydney and reconnected at his latest art exhibition.

You cannot downplay some of his crimes, including a charge of domestic violence, but rarely do we hear about how criminals try to turn their lives around.

In this chat with Antoinette Lattouf, Nathan opens up about what what leads young men to go down criminal and violent paths and crucially how to break that cycle.
