RITUAL TAROT
***The Fundraiser & Pre-sale Period is officially over! Many thanks to all of you who helped get this project off the ground, I am truly grateful for your support and patience!
In 2019, I began the process of creating Ritual Tarot, a 78 card tarot deck using analog collage. Each card was designed exclusively using deconstructed books and vintage paper ephemera. The cards are largely informed and inspired by the work of Pamela Colman Smith and Lady Frieda Harris, the artists who created the iconic imagery for the Rider Waite Tarot and The Crowley Thoth Tarot. My approach to constructing the cards was highly intuitive and my process unconventional, though I aimed to stay true to the traditional archetypes and symbols of the Tarot.
Ritual Tarot features the 22 Major Arcana cards of the tarot - (The Fool, The Magician, The High Priestess, The Empress, The Emperor, The Hierophant, The Lovers, The Chariot, Strength, The Hermit, The Wheel of Fortune, Justice, The Hanged Man, Death, Temperance, The Devil, The Tower, The Star, The Moon, The Sun, Judgement, and The World) as well as the 58 cards of the Minor Arcana. The original works and the deck will be featured at 1078 Gallery in Chico, October 29th through November 21st.
