DUMMY CHILD at LLAWN 01 ‘Dummy Child’ by Dutch artist Desiree Palmen integrates children’s body forms stitched onto adult garments that give a childless person the social appearance of being a protective parent. A fake child accessory that manages to create an effect that is both touching and provocative. A costume to imitate and feign parenthood. Desiree Palmen’s characters were presented in Llandudno town centre and on the Promenade during the three days of the Festival, between the hours of midday and 17.00 on Friday 20 September 2013 and between 11.00 and 17.00 on both Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 September 2013.
