The Interpreter is based on 22 Derbyshire Tarot cards, which were created by Okaku during a residency in Derby. Each card represents the artist’s own interpretation of the county's history, myths and legends. The structure is based on the original tarot such as The Fool - to travel through 22 scenes and encountering various events.
