Alice Becomes the Queen
Most of the time, working in the creative industry means being compared to someone else. Whether this comparison comes from the outside or from within us, it harms our persona and artistic expression. Those who came before us have for sure a lot to teach us and inspire us, but they don’t have to become our only models to follow. From my personal experience, which inspired this project, we artists are told to be different and unique, but then when we are, we are told we are not enough like someone else. This piece of work wants to remind every artist to keep doing what they are doing, especially if their approach has never been done before.
“Alice” from “Alice in Wonderland” is struggling and losing her mind over becoming just like the “Queen of Hearts” and ruling “Wonderland”. She thinks that in order to be the Queen of the Queendom she has to be just like who came before her. This is driving her insane, and shot after shot, we will see her losing her mind trying to be someone she is not.
