Sam Wilde collaborated with the municipal of Wuhan in China to create a series of street art sculptures themed around the Cheshire Cat from Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
Venture down the rabbit hole and into a world of oddities where reality has been flipped on it's head. Here the themes from Wonderland have been reconceptualised, playfully intermixing both familiar and unfamiliar motifs to create a sense of delirium for visitors.
In this world the cat serves as a spirit guide, and like in Alice, only ever shares a glimpse of its body and never its full form. The flash of its tail, a coy grin, there's an uncanny feeling there's more to the cat's tale bubbling just below the surface.
