This project just started out as a conversation with Stewart West about wanting to collaborate. He suggested a card deck, we landed on the concept of life & death and the thing just kind of took off. The title “Moirai” refers to the Greek legend of the three fates; sisters who determined the fate of men. For our deck, we chose to use their Roman names: Nona, Morta and Decima. Something about playing cards, fate, and life & death just seemed right.

are prints available of the playing cards?
They are – you can get them at http://www.thesideyard.bigcartel.com – thanks for asking John!
These look great
Hey I know it’s been some time since this project but I was wondering if any of the Moirai card deck tshirts were for sale anywhere? I loved the art and have the deck but would definitely buy a couple shirts. Thanks!
Hey Kevin! Sadly, the shirts sold out and we haven’t done a reprint yet. I’ll reach out to you whenever that happens – thanks for asking!
