“Carne” in Latin and European derivative languages means “flesh”. I decided to one day illustrate skulls I had and the idea was born. As I feel I give these skulls another life, it is a play on the idea of them reincarnated. The first series of skulls take on a Japanese theme. I have sourced high quality inks from Japan that follow a copperplate traditional printing process. The next series I will focus on vintage medical manuals and some tribal patterning. I want the skulls to look raw, clean and step away from cliché taxidermy.
