“As Above, So Below” by Twin Cities Pride artist is residence Morgan LaCasse

“As above, so below” is a concept that drives many mystical traditions, including tarot and astrology: the idea that there’s a connection between the higher universe and our small, human lives below. Understanding one can lead to insights about the other. But engaging with divination doesn’t require spirituality or knowledge about traditions. The major themes and symbols in tarot, standardized by the Rider-Waite-Smith Deck, represent universal feelings, experiences, and relationships that have inspired thousands of tarot deck illustration projects, including one by Morgue. This gallery marks the halfway point of their project, with ~40 oversized prints that re-interpret the RWS cards through the lens of pop culture and video games to create a whimsical interpretation of the classic archetypes.
