Arcana Rogue
2021

Curated by Helen Gory

Mexican born artist, Leonora Carrington’s work is endowed with subliminal iconography and visions of the ‘marvellous’, The tarot fascinated her so much she created her own version of the pack, based on the Ned Kelly mob I followed suite. Each card represents the joys and sorrows of humankind. The 22 watercolours within Arcana Rogue represent several of the major arcana archetypes but not all as I started going off the beaten track, soon realising I was not well versed enough in tarot to go the whole way. You might recognise The Devil, The Fool, The Hanged Man or The High Priestess, or you may hold a mirror to yourself and see what I have not yet seen.
