Major Arcana

Major Arcana is the first of a two part exhibition series inviting artists to reimagine each card of the Tarot deck. This iteration focuses on the Major Arcana Tarot cards which represent the arc of The Fool’s Journey to enlightenment and self discovery, illustrating significant life events and trials along the way. Collectively the 22 cards of the Major Arcana encompass the feminine and masculine, spiritual and material, action and stillness - encouraging deep self-reflection and examination. The 11 participating artists in Major Arcana join a centuries-long tradition of recreating the imagery and symbolism of the Tarot in their own unique ways, imbuing the cards with visual markers of the cultural, historical, and political undercurrents of their respective times.
