A LITERARY EXPERIENCE
ONLINE BOOKS
A man walks through a white door and discovers that the treatment doesn't begin in the body, but in the space between wakefulness and dreaming.
In The In-Between Field, reality doesn't break down—it shifts. Suspended cities, silent ships, and observing seas emerge not as escape, but as invisible layers of everyday life. Nothing presents itself as delirium; everything insists as presence.
This is the story of an intimate journey, where the unconscious manifests itself as landscape and the strange learns to coexist with the familiar. What is lost is not sanity, but the illusion that there is only one possible world.
Some places need no explanation.
They are asking to be listened to.

Landscapes of the Unconscious is a book born where technique meets mystery. In each image and verse, Celso Mathias invites the reader to traverse territories that belong not only to sight, but also to imagination, memory, and dreams. His artistic process—letting the paint spread, drip, and reveal unexpected forms—transforms chance into language and gesture into discovery. From the stains emerge mountains, cities, seas, and beings that seem to exist even before being named, as if they were memories of inner worlds. This work does not propose a path, but a state: that of getting lost in order to find oneself. A silent invitation for each reader to explore their own invisible landscapes and recognize, within them, fragments of what inhabits the unconscious.

In this book, boats are not just vessels: they are floating silences, anchored memories, and gestures suspended above the water. "Boats of Urca" brings together drawings made live by Celso Mathias , captured the instant his gaze meets the sea and his line decides to linger.
In the Urca neighborhood, where the city slows down and the horizon opens up in bursts of light, each vessel becomes a character. Quick lines and patches of shadow record the subtle sway of the tides, the quiet of the mornings, and the invisible murmur of the afternoons.
A book for those who find in the simplicity of gesture and the presence of the sea a space for contemplation, memory, and poetry.
Dream Worlds is an invitation to traverse territories where logic rests and imagination takes command. In this book, Celso Mathias constructs landscapes that belong neither to physical space nor to pure dreams, but to a sensitive in-between space—where unusual beings navigate in spaceship-like eyes, ladders lead to the invisible, and consciousness learns to play with the unknown. The images gathered here are born from an intimate and intuitive gesture, in dialogue with the unconscious and inner experience. Each drawing is a fragment of an open narrative: it does not explain, it suggests; it does not impose, it invites. More than a book of illustrations, Dream Worlds is a space of suspension—of haste, of the weight of reality, of rigid certainties. A territory where the playful and the symbolic coexist, and where the reader is called not only to look, but to recognize themselves in the images.
Celso Mathias's comics are a visual and narrative immersion into the universe of an artist who transforms line into language and imagination into a living territory. In this work, each page pulsates with the force of expressive drawing, where characters, scenes, and atmospheres intertwine between the real and the fantastic, revealing worlds that inhabit both the gaze and the unconscious.
With a distinctive, original aesthetic, Celso Mathias guides the reader through stories that go beyond the conventional narrative of comics. Here, the drawing doesn't just illustrate—it thinks, questions, and provokes. Loose lines, intense shadows, and dynamic compositions construct a sensory experience, where time seems to dissolve between panels and silences.

Black and Blood opens like a portal between two extremes: absence and excess, silence and scream, emptiness and the pulse of life. Here, black is not just a color—it is an abyss, it is origin, it is the space where everything hides before it exists. Blood, in turn, is presence, it is movement, it is that which insists on continuing, even in the face of darkness.
In this book, Celso Mathias guides the reader through inner landscapes where memory, dream, and matter intertwine. Each image, each word, each stroke carries traces of an intimate world, sometimes unsettling, sometimes profoundly human. There is no linear narrative here, but fragments of a journey—like someone drawing in the dark guided only by their own breath.
Black and Blood doesn't ask for an explanation. It demands delivery.
