ALICE IN WONDERLAND
LIBERAMENTE ISPIRATO AL LIBRO DI LEWIS CARROLL
LEE, SUZY
Floating between a mixture of flat drawings and black and white photographs, Alices story takes place among shadow games, space illusions and artistic allusions that re-create in a personal way the literary references of Lewis Carrolls novel.
A book about the dream-within-a-dream, the picture-within-a-picture, and the book-within-a-book: the story begins in an tiny thatre with orchestra and audience, then it goes on in a hidden world among everyday objects, and terminates in suspense between illusion and reality.
In its vivid black and white, this book is an unusual visual adventure summarized by Lewis Carrolls renowned sentence: Is all our life, then, but a dream?.
