Poker Cards | Missing Grant Series 001

A tribute to Grant Wood’s American Regionalism, reimagined through a queer lens, the Poker Cards | Missing Grant Series 001 honors the unseen, the unspoken, and the deeply woven queer narratives that have always existed within American history. This limited-edition deck captures the quiet strength, resilience, and defiance of two men who stand side by side—weathered by labor, bound by loyalty, and connected by something deeper than words.

Set against the backdrop of rolling Midwestern farmland and a weathered homestead, this deck transforms the stoic, hardworking imagery of classic Americana into a powerful reclamation of queer visibility and companionship. Whether you’re a poker player, collector, or an admirer of historical storytelling through art, this deck serves as a testament to the love, survival, and enduring spirit of LGBTQ+ people in rural America.

Symbolism & Inspiration
