Karen, Costume Designer, London

Today I have spent a day in West London talking to designers and interviewing Karen, Costume Designer about her amazing work on attachment theory, she has created some very moving installations using a very angry child-sized manikin she found in a boot sale.  She is exploring the emotional bonds children who have been adopted or fostered have with their carers, schooling and extended communities.  It's a wonderfully powerful project, her artefact's are a very strong dimensionalisation of quite complex issues, so they are extremely inspiring to me on my journey through MADS and her interview was full of great soundbites that I need to digest.
