Raissa Pardini on creativity, unlearning, and taking things apart to find out how they work

Most designers spend their careers learning the rules. Raissa Pardini spent hers figuring out which ones to break... and why that might be the most radical thing any of us can do. A working class Italian kid who taught herself to see the world differently, she's since designed for the Rolling Stones, had her work acquired by the V&A, toured as a bass player, and named her son after a song by her favourite musician. Here, she talks about unlearning everything she was taught, why art belongs on the front line, and what a cow with five eyes has to do with any of it.
