In the summer of 2020, 78 blank tarot cards were sent by post to 78 Belgian-based artists. A tarot deck came into existence, a set of 78 unique artworks that will be exhibited for the first time during this exhibition and edition launch. The complete deck is reproduced and brought together in the Tarot edition that will be made in an edition of 200.
Tarot
Tarot is a card game in which the questioner asks personal questions about the past, the present and the future. Each card has it’s specific meaning and by doing a Tarot reading an answer to your question unfolds. Some people think that these cards behold a mystical power, but we believe that it is a medium to start a deeper conversation. A dialogue/multilogue in which it becomes possible to discuss self-chosen topics in detail. Anyone can play Tarot cards regardless of your knowledge of the game.
