It was destiny, perhaps, that José Antonio Sáurez Londoño was asked to make a poker deck for Nine Orchard:
“When I got the commission, the first concern was the J, Q and K! It’s so difficult to imagine these characters without falling into cliché! And when told that I can do whatever I want, it was like an explosion of creativity in my head. So I began to play a multitude of mind games with people, animals and things, interacting in nonsense activities, and what you have in your hands is the result of those games—and the dream came true, one I have had since i was a teenager, to draw a deck of cards.”
