Bitter Moon Tarot
Exploring Tarot and AI with Magdalena Piech: A Creative Fusion
In the vibrant art scene of Berlin, a unique collaboration unfolded between Magdalena Piech, an accomplished Polish-American artist specializing in coal drawing, and Alexandra S. Aderhold, known for her skillful visual artistry. Their combined efforts resulted in the creation of the remarkable Bitter Moon Tarot, which seamlessly merged Magdalena's drawings with Alexandra's design expertise. The process was a thoughtful one – Magdalena's original drawings were meticulously scanned using a high-end analog scanner, ensuring that every intricate detail was preserved. Alexandra then integrated these drawings into a clean, timeless graphic design for the tarot cards. As the first decks were brought to life in print, Magdalena took on a new role – she became both the creator and the model for her own tarot card deck campaign. Alexandra expertly captured the essence of Bitter Moon Tarot through her photography and skillful editing.
During their collaboration, the idea of incorporating artificial black snakes into the campaign surfaced, and both agreed on it very quickly. This decision, made during their initial brainstorming sessions, added a distinctive and captivating element to the project. This fusion of traditional artistic techniques with the contemporary touch of artificial intelligence (AI) showcased the limitless potential that arises when art and technology harmonize. Ultimately, the collaboration speaks volumes about artistic unity, the allure of exploration, and the extraordinary results when diverse talents converge to create something truly exceptional.
