Stop-motion animation puppets and sets from Missing Link on display...

In 2019's Golden Globe-winning animated feature Missing Link, Zach Galifianakis voices a Sasquatch named 'Mr. Link' who recruits an explorer named 'Sir Lionel Frost' (Hugh Jackman) to help him find his long-lost Yeti relatives in the fabled valley of Shangri-La. They are joined on their quest by fellow adventurer, 'Adelina Fortnight' (Zoe Saldana), as the trio of explorers travel the world to help their new friend.

This assortment of stop-motion animation puppets were photographed on display at Downtown L.A.'s FIDM Museum on February 4, 2020, part of the 28th Art of Motion Picture Costume Design exhibition.

Deborah Cook was Costume Designer on this family fantasy adventure animated feature film directed by Chris Butler, designing everything from period mansion attire to clothes for trekking through the Himalayas.

The signage with the display says that Adelina's home interior was designed to reflect her free spirit being caged after the death of her husband when she is in mourning, with the vertical stripes of the study's wallpaper and the bird cage reflecting this notion.

Fans of LAIKA Studios can also enjoy these other stop-motion puppets and set exhibits from Coraline, ParaNorman, The Boxtrolls and Kubo and the Two Strings on display.
