8-Bit Fantasy Mini Tarot

You don't need firsthand experience with arcade video games to appreciate the charm of pixel art. Popular from the '70s to the '90s, pixel art is a digital art form that uses small, square pixels as the building blocks for creating simple but intriguing visuals reminiscent of early 8-bit and 16-bit video games. Finding its origin in gaming, pixel art has been fueled by the pure delight of holding a console and intricately woven into the fabric of retro aesthetic by the passage of time. Limited resolution and color palette are crucial parts of its magic formula, often evoking nostalgia. As advanced technologies indulge us with increasingly more high-res, eye-popping video games, some of us start to dwell on the beauty of pixels. This deck therefore pays homage to the golden age of pixelated video games. Through the fusion of tarot and pixel art, we hope to showcase both traditions as relevant and forward-looking rather than mere retro revivals.
