While Tarot is steeped in age-old wisdom and tradition, it’s also a powerful tool to create NEW forms of expression.
And Jia Sung’s gorgeous deck, The Trickster’s Journey Tarot, is a perfect example of this in action.
As a Singaporean Chinese artist based in Brooklyn, Jia’s work combines elements of Chinese mythology, Buddhist iconography, and folklore.
Through a queer feminist lens, Jia strikes a delicate balance between honoring traditional culture and challenging established narratives.
