Fascism Tarot Deck
Fascism Tarot Deck
20-piece art card deck, showing the early warning signs of fascism. Buy a deck. Pull a card. Fight for democracy.
How This Deck Was Made: An old tarot deck was used as the substrate for collage, paint, gesso, and inks. Images were sourced from vintage materials and tea-stained papers. Letters were hand stamped with vintage type from American Type Founders in Goudy Oldstyle 24 point.
Inspiration and Resources: This deck is inspired by current events, editorials, books, history, and art movements. Influences include:

About the Artist: Alexandra Jamieson is an NYC-based multimedia artist whose work has earned global acclaim. A third-generation self-taught artist, her recent Abortion Trading Cards series imagines a dystopian future where abortion is illegal, and people trade information about reproductive care using hand-altered playing cards.
Alex's work has been featured in galleries and exhibitions across the US. She is a best-selling author of five books, including "Radical Alignment," and was the co-creator and co-star of the Oscar-nominated documentary "Super Size Me."
Her curating project, We Create | NYC, is a fiscally sponsored project of the New York Foundation for the Arts, producing group exhibitions featuring living women, non-binary, and LGBTQIA+ artists.
Shipping & Return Policy
We pack with care and ship with stealth. All orders include privacy-conscious packaging.
Returns? Not in this timeline.
Due to the handmade, activist nature of these art decks, all sales are final. We don’t accept returns, exchanges, or refunds—unless something arrives truly damaged (in which case, email us proof and we’ll do our best to make it right).
Thanks for understanding that this project is more zine culture than Amazon warehouse.
