The art of playing card flourishing is expression through the manipulation of cards utilizing a deck's ability to split into 52 parts.

It is an extension of the flourisher’s personality, where through this expression he finds a sense of freedom.

In 2004, four artists in Singapore formed the card flourishing team, Virtuoso, and took the world by storm.

They took a break from the public scene in 2006 to reconceptualize their team.

The year is 2007, and here Virtuoso pushes the limits of the art again like never before.

Welcome to the tip of the iceberg of what's to come.

The Virts...are back.
