From project organizer, E Henderson:
The group that created the tarot deck was multi-racial, and the artists had a good deal of choice in which cards and how many they chose to illustrate.
From the creators’ website:
Over 30 artists and 4 writers participated in the project. Every one who worked on the project either has southern ties, identifies as queer, or both. The deck is a vibrant collection of illustration styles and voices, tied together by handmade feel and process, fine level of craft, and a unified color palette. A collection of many voices tells the story of one deck.
Beth has a great interview with E over on at Little Red Tarot.
