That rose-coloring episode in Alice in Wonderland inspired C J Lim to fashion his green, underground installation, dubbed ‘Seasons through the Looking Glass.’ The Malaysian architect went on to recycle tattered garments and carved them into eye-catching floral designs. Trunks and twigs were constructed from honeycomb paper sandwich panels.

As Alice said "A large rose-tree stood near the entrance of the garden; the roses growing on it were white, but there were three gardeners at it, busily painting them red. Suddenly their eyes chanced to fall upon Alice, as she stood watching them. “Would you tell me, please,” said Alice, a little timidly, “why you are painting those roses?” - Lewis Carroll, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865)
Hence, emulating the episode fully, these fabric samples will be artfully changed every few months concurring with the changing seasons.
