German artist Kassiopeya Sachenwerkler has created this amazingly detailed model of the 1950's style town, Derry from Stephen King's It
. 
"Welcome to Derry" is now my fifth free piece of
work and - just like the previous "Catacombs of Bookholm" - it has
been a long-cherished wish of mine. Stephen King's "IT" - a simply
hair-raising, frightening story and a psychological point with regard to its
Contents a finely-nuanced epic about the manifestation of the evil and the
power of naive faith.
I am a very patient and patient at the age of 12. Today, 23 years and even more readings, the story of the seven Loosers causes a warm and yearning empathy
Derry is home to me, a visit it is like visiting an old
friend. Like always, a walk on memory lane is associated with a lot of feelings
but once in a while.
Why have I not started work before when there is so much
enthusiasm and fluffy praise?
I simply did not have the guts to start this icon.
There are so many emotions associated with this book, so
many images and last but not least there is so much fear. The Fascination of
the Fifties.
And that's the way it's going to be. If you want to know
what you're doing, you'll be able to do it , One link and everything is just
fine. In my case it was an old stereo corner unit from 1958.
My Derry - including its underground world of the sewers -
is now integrated into that furniture. The novel, with all its references to
Rock 'n' Roll in the Fifties. The surface represents the romantic light of a
late summer day. Only when you flip open the cabinet do you see what is
underneath: The sewage pipes way down below ... in the green glow light of the
deadlights.
Even though a visual-physical presentation that is the
countless sides of the fictional setting is almost impossible, this work is my
very personal, most authentic approach, my private memorial for this so beloved
epic story that has been, warmed, frightened, and comforted Me for so many
years.
It's my way to say “Thank you“ to the author Andy Muschietti
(Andy, THANK YOU! I Have been waiting for 20 years for this to happen!)
With this in mind: Welcome to Derry! :)
