Product information

Design and Artwork

Materia Prima: "An Expression of Matter" Tarot, created by Peter Dunham and Linnea Gits of Uusi, is a unique artistic tarot deck based on the periodic table. The deck features hand-inked artwork, letterpress printed and hand-screened with color. This ambitious process reflects the human journey, with imperfections and emotional lines forming something creative and spiritual. The deck's imagery blends science and mysticism, with each element from the periodic table represented as a character in the cosmic drama of life.

Themes and Inspiration

This 84-card deck is inspired by the notion that all things in life are interconnected, as exemplified by the periodic table. It views elements as part of a cooperative endeavor that forms life, with each element portrayed in a soulful, playful language. The deck aims to integrate the physical and spiritual by viewing matter as a unifying force of love.

Usage and Interpretation

As a novel concept in tarot, Materia Prima does not adhere to traditional rules or guidebooks. Instead, it serves as an oracle/tarot deck that encourages users to concentrate on the nuances of physical matter. The deck offers insights into how elements like radon can provide meaningful messages, blending scientific truths with imaginative interpretation.

Reviews

zeer mooie kaarten, goede kwaliteit

- Adrien

As I am a huge fan of Uusi, a fantastic art studio from Michigan, this review might not be 100% neutral :) Those cards are so beautiful that I purchased a second set, as an X-mas gift for my bestie :) actually, it is not a Tarot deck, as there are no arcanas or suits. It is an oracle based on Mendeleev's periodic table of elements. Each element is depicted as an archetypal character. Beautiful and very inspiring!

I am not a tarot reader, I am in it for the art. This tarot is without a doubt a piece of magnificent art. The quality of the cards is very high, very durable. But for those who want this deck for readings, I have to warn you, it does not resemble any tarot I have seen before. It is very obscure. It also is not accompanied by a book or guide. There is a book in the Uusi Store, but it has to be ordered separately.

A highly artistic divinatory tool.
