This project is an experimental, hybrid approach to Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, focusing on memory and its reconstruction within a world that is slowly falling apart. Staged in an old warehouse in Kolonos, the piece unfolds as a quiet process of archiving, where memories, dreams, and fragments of the past reappear through repetition and slight distortions. Blending elements of theatre, performance, and installation, it also draws on material from Alice in Wonderland is Not a Book (Baggeion, 2022), creating a space where the real and the imagined often overlap.

For this project, I designed and built the architectural scale model of the Baggeion. The model was originally created during the research for the 2022 performance and was used again here as part of the scenography. By placing the building in miniature form inside the new work, the performance moves naturally between different scales, highlighting themes of memory, reconstruction, and the shifting line between real spaces and imagined ones.
