Alice in Covidland is a visual narrative about the unusual world we find ourselves in as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. The project includes three experimental books which, as a set, create a playful and interactive reading experience. Each of the books is based on a scene from Lewis Carroll’s Alice In Wonderland, reimagined for the Covid world. ‘Down the Rabbit Hole’, a die-cut accordion book in which Alice falls into Covidland, passing a range of objects such as masks, toilet paper, and instant food. ‘Hotel Quarantine’, a pop-up book in which Alice passes into obligatory 2-week quarantine for entering any new place. And finally, ‘The Mad-Maskers Tea Party’, a concertina book in which Alice meets a range of Covid characters such as the White Rabbit, the Caterpillar and the Dormouse. This project presents a playful narrative experience that allows readers to take a step back from the cruel reality of this time, by stepping into Alice’s curious shoes.
