ARTCANA

Story Behind the Deck

Remember Lockdown? I know right...

Well Artcana was born during the tumultuous time of COVID 19 when I saw how the creative industry was devastated. It broke my heart, and so I chose to create a platform where artists could collaborate and create collectively, as a community. I wanted to build a platform for artists from all walks of life—78 artists, for this deck! Each card in this deck represents the creativity, vision, and freedom of expression of an individual artist. From bold, modern designs to intricate, classical art styles, this deck is a celebration of diversity.

But more than that, Artcana is designed to bring people together. Tarot readings with this deck are more than just introspective moments—they’re experiences to share with friends and loved ones. Whether you're connecting over meaningful questions or simply enjoying a fun night with friends, this deck is the perfect social lubricant to spark deep and thoughtful conversations.

Why Artcana?

Here’s what sets Artcana apart:

• 78 Artists, 78 Stories: Each card in the deck is designed by a different artist, making it both a functional tarot deck and an art gallery you can hold in your hands. Every card tells its own story, reflecting the unique voice of its creator. You’ll find everything from abstract expressionism to traditional illustration, and every style in between.

• Supporting the Artists: 78% of the profits from this project go directly to the artists. Artcana is about giving back to the creators who have poured their talent into this deck. When you back this project, you're supporting a community of diverse and talented artists.

• More Than a Tarot Deck: Whether you're a seasoned tarot reader or someone picking up a deck for the first time, Artcana is designed to be used and enjoyed. Imagine sharing a tarot reading with friends over dinner, using the cards as a tool to spark meaningful conversations. This deck is perfect for those quiet nights of self-reflection or lively group readings that bring people closer together.
