Artists’ Projects

Through mural and graphic work 2014 Foundling Fellow Lemn Sissay has created a striking visual exploration of fostering and adoption in popular culture

Renowned sound recordist Chris Watson worked with young care-leavers to create a sound installation based on the dawn chorus experienced by pupils at the Foundling Hospital

A display exploring young people’s experiences of being labelled as a ‘child in care’

Ideas of sanctuary and fear are interpreted through linocut prints and letter stamps

Created by care leavers, this installation explores identity, belonging and life in care.
