In this episode of The Craft, Carter and Colby discuss the artist’s journey in relation to the hero’s journey. Their conversation combines Steven Pressfield’s The Artist’s Journey with Joseph Campbell’s theory of the monomyth, which Campbell outlines in his predominant book, The Hero With a Thousand Faces. This juxtaposition considers the comparative mythology of Campbell alongside the potential application of such a theory to creative projects and careers. During the conversation, they consider the necessity of creative descents in producing meaningful work. Additionally, Carter and Colby explore how artists repeatedly oscillate between the abstract and the concrete, using Pressfields’ adaption of Nietzsche as a guide.
