Typography used to mean something. Before screens, before instant fonts, before you could kern with a keystroke. Letters were carved, cast, set by hand. Each one placed with intention.
This series brings that weight back. Five layers of screenprint, each one building the image. But the real work happens in what's hidden. Letters emerge from texture. Words reveal themselves only when you look properly. Stand close, step back, catch the light differently — the typography shifts, appears, disappears.
It's deliberate misdirection. What you see first isn't what's there. The obvious image masks the real content. Like finding messages in wallpaper or reading between ruled lines. Typography as archaeology.
Each variant explores this differently. 'Paths of Gold' lets metallic ink catch the light, revealing letters that live in the reflection. 'Happy Man' buries text in layers of texture — you have to work to find it. Same process, different secrets.
Five layers, hand-pulled in the studio. Heritage white paper stock with a gloss finish that plays with the light. The embossed signature sits alongside the printed mark — proof this was made by hand, not algorithm.
