DescriptionDeck of one hundred coated cards, slightly larger than playing cards, contained within a white Corian box. The box is roughly rectangular, with concave ellipses in each side that develop into convex lobes at each corner. Each card features a unique graphic design in a variety of muted colors and an evocative phrase that has been translated into Mandarin, Hindi, Spanish, Russian, and Arabic.Copyright© Estate of Peter Schmidt
