Hi all!
As I promised in my first post, I'm going to share with you my new deck project.
"I Tarocchi di Fumo" meaning something like "Smoke Tarot", or to better describe it "Misty Tarot", is a Photographic Tarot Deck created by me in the last 3 months.
It's based on the Marseille Tarot deck by Nicolas Conver. I Tried to convert in photographic means as best as possible the details and symbolism of the original marseille's Decks.
Of course the first thing that comes to the attention is the loss of colours, because it is a Black & White Fine art Duotone Project.
The Main Theme of course is the Mist, or the smoke, which envelops all the characters and accompanies the Fool in his journey in the subconscious, starting by the animal that pushes the fool, which is made of smoke, going on through all the deck.
It's a full 78 Cards Deck, with the 1 to 10 numbers of the Minor Arcana made with graphics, and not figures, as the Marseilles are. With the Pentacles, the Chalices, the Wands and the Swords positioned exactly as the original deck was.
Last thing to say is that of course many positions and details of the original deck couldn't be reproduced in a photographic deck, like for example the perspective of the wheel of fortune which is completely wrong concerning physics, and other little things, but anyway... I Hope you enjoy it, it's been a tough work, and I'm hoping to have the Deck and a little photo-book published by june!
