THE QUEEN OF HEARTS
$3,200.00
The Queen of Hearts is a work rooted in childhood memory and the vivid, dreamlike world of Alice in Wonderland. As part of a larger exhibition exploring the themes of childhood and personal nostalgia, this piece reflects the lingering impact that fictional characters can have on our inner worlds. The Queen of Hearts, with her dramatic presence and commanding voice, left a powerful impression on me as a child—both terrifying and fascinating. She was larger than life, unpredictable, and full of emotional extremes, embodying the strange logic and intensity of the imagined world.
This painting captures not only the essence of the character but also the way memory blurs and transforms over time. It’s not a literal interpretation, but a felt experience—part memory, part dream, part personal myth. It represents how childhood stories shape our identities and linger in our imaginations long after we've grown.
The original artwork was digitally printed and reimagined as a piece of wearable art, allowing the Queen of Hearts to step out of the frame and into the everyday world. Through this transformation, the character becomes part of lived experience—an extension of the self, worn as a statement, a symbol, or a playful reminder of the stories that once stirred our hearts.
