PROGRAMMING
April 7 – 10 at EXPO Chicago:
Tarot card readings by Sarah Potter will be offered in conjunction with artwork by Hilma’s Ghost (Dannielle Tegeder and Sharmistha Ray). The artwork itself is made through a series of rituals and readings by Potter. Please see addendum below.
Hilma’s Ghost-designed Tarot card decks in their 2nd edition will be available for purchase at EXPO Chicago ($100 USD).
In 2021, Sharmistha Ray and Dannielle Tegeder created ABSTRACT FUTURES TAROT, an original limited edition tarot deck, for which they drew together for over 400 hours to create the 78 cards for it. In each new project since, they have imagined new ways to expand upon the tarot’s hidden meanings to make new work. This new suite of 8 drawings for EXPO Chicago emerges from their collaborative practice of drawing through ritual and tarot to address some of life’s major themes. Drawing upon the transformational meanings of the tarot the duo have created work that relate to love, money, happiness, stability, new opportunities, new beginnings, and so forth.
In their divinatory process, they worked with Sarah Potter, a professional witch and tarot reader, to pull a set of 4-6 cards from their tarot deck for each drawing. These cards were then read by Potter, who channeled their meanings below. Hilma’s Ghost used the drawn cards and meanings to create the new work in this suite, adapting further ritual processes like sigils into the drawings to activate their divine purpose.

The truth hurts sometimes, but it’s so much worse to believe the lies. You say you want to know what’s real but then you refuse to hear it. The secret to happiness is that it really doesn’t have to be like this. Help is here when you need it, all you need to do is ask.

Once you recognize the reality, the right decision is easy. Afterall, you can’t take it with you and money is best shared and enjoyed with people you love so go ahead and host that party in honor of everything you finally let go of from your past. Imagine if you just put yourself first now because who said self care is merely a daydream? This is a fantasy to get swept up in.

When you are stuck in the past and clinging to your old ways, you will miss out on the open road ahead of you. This cycle ends now. You aren’t alone in this one because we are all in this boat together. What are you waiting for? The only way out is through.
Go ahead, go for it! Go after what you want. You know it’s right in front of you so reach out and grab it. Missing an opportunity because you don’t take it is worse than trying and failing. Maybe the success will be in the failure? Live without regrets because at least you tried.
