A collaboration between Sawdust, art director Andrew Stellitano and photographer Dominic Davies based on bringing typography and food together.

The concept typographically depicts the three main stages of the narrative in Joseph Campbell's Monomyth structure: Departure, Initiation and Return. The Monomyth is a basic pattern for events that its proponents argue is found in many narratives from around the world.

We were tasked with developing letterforms that would eventually be laser cut from pasta and beautifully shot by still life photographer Dominic Davies. Each of the three final artworks were constructed using real laser cut pasta (for the letterforms) and raw ingredients.
