Adele Änggård grew up in a family that travelled across Europe, where foreign policies and social questions were continually under debate. With several artists in the family, travel naturally extended her interest in art, which eventually found an outlet in theatre designer. Four decades of being costume and set designer brought her into contact with (among other periods) ancient Greek dramas and the culture’s social relationships, which revealed the close connection between people’s art and mentality. While living in Sweden, her work took her to the USA, England, Norway, Denmark, France, Italy, and Poland. In Stockholm, she later studied archaeology at the Södertörn University and worked in several women’s refuge centres, which led to authorship on costs and methods of social denial.\
