Description
"Alice" was influenced by the highly acclaimed series "Mad Men". The series reminded me of how women were depicted by men in their advertisements as well as their "man club" during that time.
"Alice" developed as I went along, and I brought in "Alice in Wonderland" symbols to bring in the surreal aspect to this piece.
Alice in my piece, is not sure about the promise New York City and advertising brings to a young beautiful woman. She will be contributing to the "image" of a false reality. These products promise love, beauty, glamour, and a man.
The white rabbit is drawing her into the mirror of her reflection, the rabbit hole. The question is does she?
I have also placed some past work of mine as advertisements along with "real" 1960 advertisements, you might remember some of them.
Alice was a joy to do, it brought back memories of an era I grew up in, and I too bought the "false reality" and to this day struggle with the "miss perfect" sale's pitch.
I hope you enjoy "Alice", and a little trip 1960's memory lane.

This is a wonderful concept piece and a strong statement about the image of women vs reality, and the expectations/burdens it brings with it!
