The Ghetto Tarot is a photographic interpretation of the traditional tarot deck in the Haitian slums. The idea is to have people question their assumptions about the Ghetto and to change the negative connotation the word usually implies into a positive one. Our objective is to highlight the creativity and strength of the Ghettonian citizens to dissolve the circle of dependence. The world needs to start looking at their skills and capacities instead of their deficiencies. The Ghetto Tarot is reaching beyond cultural walls of prejudice and ignorance to achieve a transformation of the collective conscience perception of the Ghetto.
