Deck of Cards

Deck of Cards is a series of magical sigils rendered as intimate, symbolic objects.

Drawn on thick, fibrous paper and executed with fine-tip paint markers, each card possesses a strong material presence. Handwritten texts appear on the reverse and are presented as titles in the gallery. The imagery is rooted in natural scenes and cyclical processes, including Bloodcycles, in which Jacqueline uses her own blood as ink, deepening the physical and ritual dimension of the work.

Referencing the organic abstraction of Hilma af Klint and drawing on Nordic symbols and mythic motifs, the series operates as a symbolic system. Part ritual object and part visual language, the cards explore themes of transformation, embodiment, and cyclical time, inviting the viewer to engage with the works as both images and instruments of meaning.
