Follow the White Rabbit, forget everything you thought you knew about the natural world, and prepare to meet a rather extraordinary collection of characters. In Alice and a Long Tale, Kerry Darlington returns to the wonderfully nonsensical universe of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, bringing together beloved literary figures and fantastical creatures in a spectacular celebration of imagination.
Seated at the heart of this colourful gathering is Alice, surrounded by a menagerie of animals whose personalities seem almost as vivid as their extraordinary surroundings. The Cheshire Cat grins knowingly from the branches above, while the magnificent Dodo, resplendent in turquoise, purple and emerald feathers, stands amongst an unlikely assortment of woodland creatures, exotic birds and curious companions.
A majestic owl surveys the gathering with an expression of quiet authority, while rabbits, butterflies and brilliantly coloured birds bring a sense of movement and mischief to every corner. Even the trees seem to have joined in the festivities, their branches bursting with jewel-bright leaves against a brilliant blue sky.
There is a wonderful sense of organised chaos to the composition, perfectly capturing the spirit of Carroll's literary world. The Dodo, of course, is no stranger to peculiar gatherings. His famous Caucus-race, in which everybody wins and everyone receives a prize, remains one of Wonderland's most delightful examples of logic turned completely upside down.
Created as a Unique Mixed Media Edition, Kerry's extraordinary composition takes on an additional dimension through intricate three-dimensional embellishments and a beautifully luminous gloss resin finish. The sculptural detailing introduces depth and texture to the elaborate foliage, fantastical creatures and decorative elements, while the resin intensifies the extraordinary vibrancy of Kerry's palette.
Every glance reveals another personality, another curious detail or another little story waiting to be discovered. It is precisely this richness that makes Kerry Darlington's interpretations of familiar fairy tales so endlessly captivating.
Limited to just 95 Unique Editions and 20 Artist Proofs worldwide, Alice and a Long Tale is a joyful invitation to embrace the unexpected, celebrate our differences and make room for a little more wonder in everyday life.
