Surreal
"Life is full of choices! Having stepped into a mysterious mirror portal, her reflection is caught between two worlds and she must decide to which reality she belongs. Should she enter the hurly- burly of Victorian London street life that feels so familiar to her, and yet so distant? Or perhaps the eerie neglected buildings are all that remain of a palace where once she was a princess. The indecision is yours!"

This image is reminiscent of the tale Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There (1871), by Lewis Carroll. The story is a sequel to Alice in Wonderland (1865), and contains many of the same characters and themes. One theme in particular is that of escaping the natural world for the fanciful and surreal “Wonderland.” Wall’s “Alternate Reality” gives the viewer a sense of the transition from one world to another.
