Society in Our Hands
ARCA52 was born from the idea of giving new meaning to a simple, universal object—the deck of cards—transforming it into a tool that tells the story of how we inhabit the city and build relationships within it.
Turning a deck of cards into a narrative way for exploring contemporary living.
