Baht-ul Divane Tarot Deck

My new project has a concept that contains Persian symbols and pre-Islamic myths and I try to break the mold by blending them.

My main goal in this project was to push my creativity in a new direction while staying true to the eastern miniature style of this period.

Understanding the unique eastern coloring methods and examining western miniatures from the same period had been in the back of my mind for a long time, and thanks to this project, I had the opportunity to blend these two unique methods.

While creating the cards, I tried to take care to carry their meanings to different stages by breaking down stereotyped symbols and myths. Thus, I had the freedom to get rid of fixed stories and create a more original narrative...

Demons Of Ars Goetia Deck

This tarot deck is inspired by the demons that King Solomon is rumored to have controlled. The visual designs of the demons are based on their written descriptions in the book called Ars Goetia. My interest in this topic started with another project that I undertook the visual design between 2018-2020. For this project in question, I only needed to design 32 of the demons. However, later this topic caught my attention more and I came up with the idea of turning all 72 demons in Ars Geotia into a tarot deck. I hope you find this mysterious world and deck as interesting as I do and make it a part of your life
