Project
Alice, recast as a scout in a castle of hearts — the queen’s court watched from the outside, by telescope.
The second piece in the Otherland series. Alice is no longer falling — she’s working. The castle in the distance carries the Queen’s heart banner; petals from the cherry tree drift past at the same rate the scene reveals itself.
Inspired by Lewis Carroll’s work, which is in the public domain. The reimagining is a personal study.
