Minu Freitag

Hi there, I am Minu. I enjoy beautiful, simple things with a touch of the uncanny and weird. I work as an illustrator, print- and toy-maker in Wellington, New Zealand. My whimsical creations are made from a variety of materials using traditional print and craft techniques. Keeping my art practice sustainable and working with recycled materials is essential to me - most of my canvases are recycled wood; my paper mache creatures are made from recycled paper and cartons; and I am working on a series of plush creatures made from felt and recycled fabrics.

My instagram and twitter handler is @minufreitag and my website is minu.co.nz.

I am here to re-connect with a more experimental, creative approach to my work - especially a fun way to bring my creations to live using different techniques.
