about the author

Hi! I'm Beata Pytko, a comic book artist from Warsaw, an architect by profession. I wrote my master's thesis on housing estates and urban planning of cities from sci-fi films. I escaped from architecture to seek fulfillment in comics. My debut, Killing Hood, touches on gentrification and burnout.

 

During breaks from large projects I create short forms. I mostly focus on issues of urban sociology and mental health.
