“A Common Way: A Walking Tarot of the Wild Ways of the Woods” is a set of walks that encourage going off-piste, walks that invite you to unite as part of nature.
At its heart, tarot is a storytelling device. A deck of symbols and narratives that can spark conversations, inspire ideas, and reveal new perspectives. This “walking tarot” invites you to go one step further – it invites you to enact whole new stories of care for the woods, for ourselves and for one another.
Drawing on the ancient wisdom of tarot and of Britain’s wild lands, these cards have been written through conversations with the communities of the ancient Forest of Hatfield, and drawn over long nights camping out in the British woods. These are walks that invite care for the woods, for ourselves and for one another.
As well as selling the tarot decks, we will be inviting people to choose a card from the deck and use it to explore the beautiful grounds in a whole new way.
Drop in at any point over the weekend to speak with the artist and learn more about the project.
