Auguste Blackman, son of Charles Blackman, carries on his father’s legacy with the fantastical ‘Remembrance II’. Present is the White Rabbit, merging with Alice, surrounded by a constellation of fantastical debris: flowers, bees and tea cups. This work is as much an ode to Alice in Wonderland as it is to Auguste’s childhood. In his own words:

“Alice and her best friend the rabbit reminisce about all their adventures and the best thing is they survived it all together.”
 

Originally conceived as a standalone painting depicting Alice and flowers, Auguste was compelled by the image of Alice to include the rabbit – flowering a single painting into a series of three paying homage to their friendship.

Cast in a complex and personal light, this Alice is an homage to Charles Blackman’s legacy, the wonder of a childlike eye and chaos. Whether reflecting on the experience of growing up among artists, or demonstrating a born passion for painting, Auguste remains a dynamic and rich voice in Australian art.

For collectors of the Blackmans and admirers of Alice in Wonderland, reminisce on former days with ‘Remembrance II’.
