Clothespin Tarot Drawings, 2003-2007
The Clothespin Mandalas evolved into the Clothespin Tarot Drawings & Clothespin Tarot Artist’s Book.
In these 78 pencil and watercolor drawings the "Clothespin Freaks", creatures made out of clear clothespins and wearing hand sewn clothes, are introduced and arranged in various traditional Tarot card poses.
The subversive Clothespin Freaks rebel against the establishment of the “suits”. Instead of swords, wands, coins and cups, the 56 Minor Clothespin Freaks make use of hatpins, darners, buttons and thimbles, alternative implements characterized by their feminist references.
