About
Matteo Montero-Murillo (also known as Mueritos online) is a trans and gay artist from Bethlehem, PA born to Mexican immigrants. He has been drawing since he could hold a pencil and finds creative outlets in not just art but in music, graphic design, fashion, and more. While he is a freelance artist, he is currently studying at Boston University for a Master's in Social Work and hopes to one day work clinically with queer youth and young adults. He also has a BA in Spanish with a minor in Women's Gender and Sexuality Studies from Moravian University.
He is interested in making radical and provocative art and comics. He does not shy away from anarchist, de-colonial, sexual, and queer-inclusive themes in his art. He loves magical realism, comics, alternative music, and most importantly-cats. He has several years of experience creating comics and digital art.
Matteo also enjoys working within the social work field, both as a research assistant and therapist. He struggles to find ways to combine his love of art with the usual 9-5, but he has had the opportunity to create several graphics for Dr. Luis Hernandez-Alvarez for HIV related research. He is available for work creating research briefs for students, researchers, professors, and more.
