Johanna is a mixed-media artist, writer, and travel enthusiast living in Philadelphia. She’s currently working at Drexel University, building her own studio practice, and pursuing a graduate degree in art therapy. In her free time, you can find her enjoying the Philadelphia food scene, roller skating, or taking weekend trips to the Jersey shore. Before becoming an antonym editor in 2020, Johanna had no experience with publishing or literary magazines. She enjoys the creative process of making the magazine, but her favorite part is how amazing the team is.

Johanna’s thoughts on her creative process: I’ve struggled enough creatively that I know not to take my art for granted. My biggest priority is to show up for myself by making time for art, investing in classes and materials, and taking care of myself so that I have the energy to make. But taking time here and there to get out of the studio and experience the world is just necessary for me to feel alive and creative!
