Een toegankelijk tarotspel – uitgelegd en uitgetest

The Disability/Sick Tarot questions our personal relationship with health, sickness and disability through the format of a tarot deck. How do we love ourselves and take care of ourselves through spirituality? What does healing mean outside the rooms of a hospital? What collective memories do we cherish as unruly and/or sick bodies? Who’s our Emperor? What crip-knowledge lies underneath the Sun?

In response to the suits of the Tarot deck, reimagined here by Josefien Cornette and Bebe Books, artists Malaika Cunningham & Jennie Moran have concocted a collection of moments of hospitality for those attending the launch. They have created a menu of interruptions and edible offerings designed to spark mischief and fuel connections made over chance encounters.
