Artistic Trilogy Series
The Artistic Trilogy Series offers a different way to explore the great archetypes of Tarot. It is composed of four trilogies, each presented in a box containing three independent decks, each formed by the 22 Major Arcana: three distinct visual universes and a total of 66 cards in each edition.
Four trilogies · 12 decks
These decks begin with the symbolic structure of the Rider–Waite, but tradition serves as a starting point rather than a limit. Each one develops its own artistic language, transforms colors, atmospheres, and settings, and leads the archetypes toward freer, more original, and deeply expressive visual territories.
Each box thus becomes a work built from the dialogue among three worlds: three ways of contemplating, feeling, and interpreting the same archetypal journey. More than bringing together three decks, each trilogy creates a complete artistic experience.

Artistic Trilogy 1
This first trilogy transports the great archetypes of Tarot toward places and objects in which the human figure gives way to the symbol. In all three decks, each arcana retains its traditional name and also receives a second title, created especially to express its new identity.
In Sacred Sanctuaries, each Major Arcana becomes a unique space: interior chambers, open landscapes, and spiritual architectures conceived as physical manifestations of its essence. They do not represent existing places, but sanctuaries imagined to give form to what each card holds within.
Encapsulated Worlds encloses small universes inside spheres, books, stones, hearts, and unexpected objects. Each element opens to reveal a complete reality within, transforming the arcana into a secret world contained inside another world.
In Relics of Time, the symbols take the form of mechanisms and artifacts from a past that never existed. They are ancient, impossible machines conceived to embody the message of each card as if they were remnants of a forgotten civilization.
Together, the three decks form an exploration of mystery, imagined antiquity, and hidden worlds. Tarot is no longer presented through characters, but through sanctuaries, contained universes, and relics that seem to have waited for centuries for the moment to be discovered.
Artistic Trilogy 2
This trilogy places imagination at the center of the experience. Its three decks explore different ways of giving new life to the archetypes: creative power, the expressive freedom of surrealism, and the invisible territory of dreams. The Major Arcana are not simply represented, but transformed into new presences, actions, and symbols.
In Creation and Oneiric, each arcana receives its own name, born from the image and the new identity it acquires within its universe. Surrealism, by contrast, retains the traditional names but frees its figures through an intense, spontaneous, and deeply personal visual expression.
This trilogy also holds the spark that ignited Universo Tarot Marzara: Surrealism was the first deck that opened the way for the entire collection. Together, the three decks create a journey from creating to transforming and dreaming. Here, each archetype seems to be born again before our eyes.
The Three Decks of Artistic Trilogy 2
Creation
Each arcana leaves behind its traditional name and receives a title that reveals a new identity: Inspiration, The Alchemist, or The Invisible Power are some of the gateways into this universe. Masters, sages, guides, and original beings embody energies, elements, and processes of transformation.
In this deck, the archetype is not reproduced: it becomes a new concept and an act of creation. Each card develops its own idea within a symbolic world where the visible and the invisible participate in the same creative force.
Surrealism
Surrealism retains the traditional names and the fundamental symbols of the Rider–Waite, but transports them into a different reality. Its ethereal figures, with elongated silhouettes and pale or bluish tones, inhabit scenes built with free strokes, visible textures, and intense colors.
The deck does not abandon tradition: it makes it speak from another plane. Its direct, spontaneous, and deeply personal expression made Surrealism the first great creative spark from which Universo Tarot Marzara would be born.
Oneiric
Oneiric leads the archetypes into the territory of dreams. Each arcana receives a new name —such as The Dreamer, The Weaver of Dreams, The Guardian of the Threshold, or The Labyrinth of the Moon— and becomes a presence born from the inner world.
Blue and golden atmospheres, suspended objects, luminous threads, and impossible settings turn each card into a vision that seems remembered upon waking. This deck does not merely represent dreams: it invites you to enter them.
Three decks and three movements of the imagination: create, release, and dream. Together, they transform the 22 Major Arcana into a journey through the mind and spirit’s ability to give Tarot new forms.
Artistic Trilogy 3
This trilogy takes the great archetypes of Tarot into the visual language of comics and graphic novels. It does not develop stories through panels or dialogue: it concentrates the full narrative force of each arcana into a single scene. Inked lines, defined contours, expressive characters, intense color, and dramatic lighting bring movement, character, and presence.
The three decks preserve the traditional names, archetypal figures, and essential symbols of the Rider–Waite, but lead them into different universes. Path of the Rose surrounds its scenes with an ornamental aesthetic dominated by roses; Mystical Journey places the characters in territories of magic, mystery, and discovery; and Luminous Power turns light into a visible force that passes through and transforms every image.
Together, the three decks feel like chapters of a story that was never written. Each card contains a decisive instant, as if the archetype had entered into action and the reader arrived at exactly the moment when its power begins to manifest.
The Three Decks of Artistic Trilogy 3
Path of the Rose
A single rose vine runs through the frames of all 22 cards and turns their borders into a portal. The flowers remain on that threshold without invading the scenes: they are the path leading toward the universe contained within each arcana.
Upon crossing it, the reader encounters the traditional characters and symbols of Tarot reinterpreted through an ornamental, elegant, and detailed comic-book aesthetic. Landscapes, architecture, and expansive settings accompany images that preserve their classical essence while opening the entrance to a world of their own.
Mystical Journey
Mystical Journey transforms the path of the Major Arcana into a fantasy graphic-novel adventure. Grimoires, secret signs, portals, spaces of experimentation, cosmic skies, and moving energies surround characters who retain the essence of their traditional archetypes.
Each card can feel like a new stage in a journey through the unknown. Tarot thus becomes an inner voyage, where every encounter reveals a mystery and each arcana opens the way to a different experience.
Luminous Power
In Luminous Power, the characters take on a more heroic, dynamic, and powerful presence. Their gestures, movements, and compositions show them at the precise instant when their strength begins to manifest.
Light does not function merely as illumination: it becomes energy, revelation, and visible power. It moves through the scenes, passes through the symbols, and gives each arcana an intensity capable of turning the image into a moment of splendor.
The three decks form a progression born naturally from their own essence: Path of the Rose opens the portal, Mystical Journey travels the path, and Luminous Power manifests the strength that has been reached.
Artistic Trilogy 4
The fourth trilogy closes the artistic journey with a tribute to The Midas Touch Series. To create it, one deck from each of the three previous trilogies was chosen and reborn through the same sculptural language of gold.
The transformation is not simply a change of colors. Characters, symbols, objects, and entire worlds acquire the volume and presence of unique pieces, built on ornamental bases and enriched with reliefs, gems, and precious details. The identity of each deck remains recognizable, but its images seem to have been transported from the card into a treasure chamber.
These three versions belong exclusively to Artistic Trilogy 4 and are not part of The Midas Touch Series. The box thus becomes a bridge between the previous trilogies and the closing of the entire cycle: three different universes united by the same touch, capable of transforming the image into a work of gold.
The Three Decks of Artistic Trilogy 4
Surrealism Gold
Surrealism Gold preserves the names, traditional symbols, and singular appearance of its characters. The ethereal, slender, elongated figures retain their identity but acquire the body and permanence of golden statues.
Ornamented garments, gems, reliefs, and carefully constructed bases surround each arcana without erasing its original strangeness. In this deck, gold performs an essential transformation: it makes tangible what previously seemed to belong to another plane.
Encapsulated Worlds Gold
In its original version, Encapsulated Worlds has no human figures. Upon receiving the golden touch, each of those universes gains a guardian: a golden presence charged with holding, protecting, or watching over the world hidden inside each object.
Spheres, mechanisms, and relics become small cosmoses guarded by ceremonial figures. Each card retains its traditional name and its original second title, but gains a new symbolic relationship: the inner world is no longer alone; now there is someone destined to preserve its mystery.
Path of the Rose Gold
In Path of the Rose Gold, the vine frame that served as the entrance to the original deck disappears. Its mission seems to have been fulfilled: King Midas has crossed the portal, entered that universe, and touched each of its characters.
Freed from the frame, the archetypes retain their traditional names and symbols, but manifest as golden statues on ornamental bases. The path ceases to be merely an entrance and becomes the definitive passage between two states: from illustration to matter, and from character to artwork.
In Surrealism Gold, the ethereal becomes tangible; in Encapsulated Worlds Gold, each universe receives a guardian; and in Path of the Rose Gold, the characters finally cross the portal. Three transformations that reveal that King Midas’s touch does more than cover things in gold: it consecrates a new way of existing.
