Origins







 Watercolor paper, acrylic paint, acetate, playing cards
A piece that tells the history of playing cards. Because playing cards originated from the tarot, which is based upon planetary motion and movement of the stars, I opted to create a piece that is reminiscent of the solar system. Viewers were encouraged to find their favorite card of the deck and take the message that's attached to it with them.
Can be improved upon by expanding the "stars" throughout the entire room.
