This Friday’s featured artists are photographer Henry Hargreaves and food stylist Caitlin Levin
– they collaborated on a series of food-based country maps composed of signature national ingredients!
The typography is by Sarit Melmed.
Inspired by a passion for travel, these maps made with real food show how food has traveled the globe –
and become a part of the cultural identity of places.
I can’t decide if France or the UK/Ireland map is my favorite! They look delicious!
