Concept

DenialEntrance.jpg

Denial is the first stage of Grief Alice encounters upon her return to Wonderland. It hints at the shattered reality of Wonderland - islands floating in the sky, broken toys and teapots - but Denial paints the scene with such lovely light, color, music, and sound that we’re briefly lulled into believing everything is alright.

The Rabbit Plush is Alice's companion, sometimes running ahead of Alice to guide the way, other times jumping into Alice’s arms for a ride. He delivers dialog and provides for Alice a companion to talk to (rarely to talk with). Rabbit is Alice’s curiosity projecting itself forward into the unknown. Alice expresses her fear and wonderment to Rabbit throughout the journey. Cheshire Cat appears from a darker place within Alice’s mind. He knows just how fucked up things are but is characteristically oblique. “The best lessons are learned the hard way.” He derides Alice’s relationship with Rabbit - not only because Rabbit seems to lack a brain but also because “Rabbits are fine to ruminate and stew but one in your belly will take you further than a lucky paw.”

Alice’s goal at this point is a mirage or a fool’s errand - rearranging the deck chairs while the ship sinks; making the bed while the house burns. The Jabberwocky is released from its cave and lays waste to the illusion. Denial is blown apart and we see the true nature of Wonderland in its current state. A wasteland of destruction - entire kingdoms blown into orbit around a central “sun” of Chaos.
