A whimsical, magical and unclassifiable work of literature might better describe "Alice in Wonderland" than simply a fairy tale. This psychedelic fantasy explores the open narrative of fairy tales, conjuring illusionary dreams of sleepwalking during the daytime, while unveiling the peculiarities of adult life. This is perfectly echoed in contemporary art as well, which marries the bizarre with the worldly.
Rabbit Hole
The dark is where impossible things happen, but it is also the place where imaginations glint.
Take a plunge into the mysterious rabbit hole with Sim Chan and Apple Cheng, and let go of your habits. Wouldn't this be the perfect time to explore the realm between familiarity and strangeness? The city and the dreams are tucked away in a cave as Sim Chan flits between day and night. He illuminates the evening lights during the day, but sleepwalks in the afternoon, pondering his "déjà vu". As a messenger between the real and virtual worlds, Apple Cheng travels in the parallel universe. Despite capturing human melancholy, her cartoon characters always inspire hope. Everything here is inexplicable, as it should be.
