Wayhome Tarot

Design and Inspiration

The Wayhome Tarot, created by Bakara Wintner and Autumn Whitehurst, is a 78-card deck with each card meticulously illustrated to embody various archetypes. The collaboration between Wintner and Whitehurst, which began in a Brooklyn dog park, combines their mutual Scorpio passion for esotericism and the occult, and belief in cartomancy.

Artistic Process and Vision

The deck's creation involved a detailed, card-by-card review in Whitehurst's Gowanus studio, striving to find the perfect visual representation for each tarot archetype. Their combined efforts – Whitehurst's mature classic aesthetic and Wintner’s youthful exuberance – led to a deck that is both luminous and profound, reimagining the magic in everyday life.

Experience and Accessibility

Wayhome Tarot is designed to be user-friendly, suitable for all levels of tarot experience. The deck radiates a surprisingly sunny disposition for its depth, making the mystical accessible and relatable through its enchanting imagery of everyday objects.

Collaborative Journey

The creation of this deck was a transformative collaborative effort involving artists, designers, and technologists. Immersed in the Catskill mountains, the team delved deep into their psyches, resulting in a deck that is a testament to collective divination and creative experimentation.

Reviews

Een deck zonder een begeleidend boekje. Dat staat oom in de omschrijving. Al heb ik begrepen dat als je het boek "WTF is Tarot" aanschaft, je al een eind op weg bent. (Misschien een idee om het boek aan het assortiment toe te voegen, tarot.nl?) Een duur deck naar verhouding met de kwaliteit van de kaarten (dun) en ze stinken; naar lijm, of inkt. Elke kaart is een kunstwerk, en daarom mis ik een begeleidend boekje tav uitleg van het kunstwerk en hoe het kunstwerk gekoppeld is aan de desbetreffende tarotkaart. Mzar dat het deck zo stinkt is een complete afknapper.
