five little posters on a wall

…. with a story to tell about Alice complete with the Queen of Hearts (no tarts though), a White Rabbit and a grinning Cheshire Cat. But it’s not Alice in Wonderland, instead it’s Alice Au Pays du Street Art.

5 posters on an outside wall, each with a painting on it

below: With a mask and a feather in his tophat, Atelier Waladou’s black and white linocut along with the Queen of Hearts who wants sentencing first and verdict after (by Nevoul Art)

below: All Alice stories need a white rabbit, or rather un lapin blanc when in Paris. In this case, it was provided by Glauc‘ who has given him a pocket watch,an egg timer, and at least five wrist watches so he can watch the time. He mustn’t be late! Le lapin blanc face au temps.

below: The Cheshire Cat is grinning ear to ear as it asks to be taken to Wonderland but left in Neverland. It was painted by LiAXrt. And last is Alice in her pink outfit with a red bottle of “drink me” potion and a brown “eat me” cookie.

Alice’s wonderland mural

In an alley near rue Mont Royal and rue Saint Denis is a mural based on the characters from the story of Alice in Wonderland – the white rabbit worrying about the time, a grinning cheshire cat who rises above it all, human playing cards, and a dopey looking hookah smoking caterpillar.  (photos spring 2015)
