Joseph Kosdrosky

In my work, I create ‘animals’ that do the best they can to endure the modern world. My animal characters navigate the circumstances they find themselves in using determination, a certain flourish, and a sense of humor. These characters inhabit a color-saturated world of imagery culled from retro design, vintage children’s books, and catalogues of outdated products and technology. The silent though animated creatures invite the viewer to connect and  invent a narrative for them as the protagonists of the story.

I received a B.F.A. in painting from the San Francisco Art Institute. My work is exhibited throughout California and nationally. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and work for a non-profit organization as both an art instructor and curator.
