The acrylic painting refers to the film work (of course:
"Alice in Wonderland" - American film from 1951 produced by Walt Disney Productions and based on the book by Lewis Carroll).
The Cheshire Cat is shown in all its glory (not just the smile itself), while the Mad Hatter has disappeared somewhere and only flying hats are seen.
The character of the Cat refers to some extent (mainly in terms of colors) to the film prototype, but its "weirdness" has been shown by other means of expression.
The teapot and cookies are, of course, the props that symbolize tea at the Mad Hatter's.
The bottles contain the appropriate fluids ("to grow" and "to decline").
The box (casket) is probably from another fairy tale.
This painting can be included in the trend of "anthropomorphic portraits".
Bohdan Wincenty Łoboda, a contemporary Polish artist, pursued his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź. Furthering his education, he completed postgraduate studies in Puppet Theater Directing at the State Higher School of Theater in Warsaw, focusing on the Department of Puppet Theater Directing in Białystok.
Łoboda's artistic journey encompasses designing scenery for children's performances at various State Puppet Theaters, including those in Gdańsk, Poznań, Lublin, Będzin, Bielsko, and Radom. His recent paintings feature fairy-tale characters and situations drawn from theatrical productions for which he created the scenery.
With a background spanning many years in graphic art, particularly color woodcut, Łoboda's works often center around the theme of a female portrait. Through a juxtaposition of two faces representing distinct personalities, his art captures a dialogue or conflict using economical graphic techniques.
For Łoboda, painting is akin to creating a theatrical scene. As he brings his characters to life on canvas, they engage in their own existence, peering into each other's worlds from the other side of the mirror or the painted surface.
