So as I was thinking of an idea for this project, I realized that metro cards, aside of being a way to get into the metro, are, indeed, cards - and from there, the path to Tarot cards was really easy...
All the imagery used for this deck was taken from Fashion magazines of May 2010. I wanted to use something just like the metro cards, which is transitory and of the moment. Combining patterns, tarot archetypes and imagery for something that isn't so traditional as classic Tarot and isn't entierly of now.
The basic 22 major arcana cards are enough to read fortune, meditate and use for divination and search of advice and guidance through life. I've been researching tarot card for the past 17 years or so, and those are usable cards.
Deck contains 25 cards - 22 cards of the Major arcana, an opening cards and 2 instruction cards. Printed on heavy archival Epson SemiGloss paper.
and come in a soft supple leather case in a camel shade. Each card is about 3.5"X2.5" (9.5X6 CM). The back of the card is made from a gold and black lizard skin like textured paper.
The Single Fair show is taking place on Saturday, May 8th at 4pm until late. The artists’ studio at 224 Grand will be transformed into the “Single Fare” exhibition space through May 12th. Come over to see the original if you are in the neighborhood!
