Memento Mori Playing Cards

الوصف

With exclusive Fabbrica Magia video.Inspired by medieval Latin theory.The practice and the ever-present reflection on mortality has been a part of human culture for centuries.From philosophy to the arts, the charm, the fear, the existence of death has always fascinated and cultivated our mind.Many practitioners of this theory kept with them objects, memories and everything they needed to be reminded that the only thing certain in life was death. Many of these items were watches or necklaces with skulls. The simplistic but provoking design that represents the nude “bones” of creation in 3D.Art and design coming together.The first steps of animation towards the “virtual life”. Many historians believe that playing cards have a deeper esoteric meaning and that each suit represented one of the four seasons. Each of the thirteen cards per suit represented the 13 moon phases.The 52 cards in a deck in turn represented the 52 weeks of the year and therefore a full year of our life. A constant reminder of our time fleeting on earth. -
