Personal illustration work by Josh Mateo

Role

I made these

Putting pen to paper allows me to express myself when words can not — which also applies to my design process. I enjoy creating a morbid relationship between nature and bodily forms. Most of this work has no specific meaning behind it, but I love to hear how people relate (or not) to what's in front of them.
