Alice at Unbound


'You may call it "nonsense" if you like,' she said, 'but I'VE heard nonsense, compared with which that would be as sensible as a dictionary!'

Sarita participated in Unbound, an inspiring artist book workshop that culminated in an exhibition of book sculpture. Her obsession with quotes from Alice in Wonderland resulted in a woven dress, made of banana fibre paper.



"What is the use of a book without pictures or conversations?"

This narrative dress, a picture in itself, in iconic blue and white with conversations woven in and real objects - a golden key, a pocket watch, butterflies and flowers is reminiscent of the hidden secrets that Alice finds in Wonderland.
