ALL THE FACES OF THE MOON
@ The Public Theater, NYC, 2013–14
Tokmakova created 29 Tarot-based paintings for Mike Daisey's 29-night theatrical novel about a magical New York City. Each painting appeared onstage for one performance, while the complete series was on view in the main lobby. The series comprises the 22 major arcana of the Tarot, the 5 planets, and opening and closing night "Dealer" paintings.
