Jor Ros - March 2022
By Nathan Wilson
Get ready for the Jor Ros x Magpie Playing Cards, coming March 2022.
Jor Ros is an illustrator whose wide range of interests are clearly visible in his unique design portfolio. He focuses on pop culture, fashion, streetwear and music, while also developing concepts and applications for companies and brands. He has roots in Mexico, but is currently based in Barcelona, Spain.
Jor describes the vision for his upcoming collaboration with Magpie Cards as being "heavily inspired by tarot cards. Not as a mystic tool for seeing into the future, but as a really effective introspection, narrative, and creative visualization tool. I'd like for my cards to have a hidden symbolic meaning, being able to use them as a regular deck of playing cards, but also as a thinking tool."
Based on the preliminary illustrations we've seen, Jor's custom playing cards will do all those things and more.
His Magpie Playing Card collaboration will be released in March, 2022. But in the meantime, you can check out more of Jor's work on Instagram, @jor.ros. Follow him to get release date updates, and previews of his playing cards that will have you counting down the days until their release!
