Mythic Mashup knows a secret….
If you know how to listen, the universe speaks. Sometimes in words, more often in symbols, it leaves us a trail of breadcrumbs, practically begging us to follow. Train your mind, open your eyes, and you’ll see it all around you. It’s alive and whispering to us, channeling messages through our art, our books, our movies, our music. Step outside and you’ll see it in the sky, the forest, the faces of animals. Or open up a tarot deck – each card is waiting to have a conversation with you..
Why collage?
The archetypes of Tarot have lived thousands of lives in thousands of places, shapeshifting and adapting, but never quite losing their essential form.
I see pieces of them everywhere I look; in magazine racks, recycle bins, junk mail, and children’s books. They call out to me, in fragments, and I bring them back together.
About the artist
Hannah Freitag resides among pine trees and rainclouds in the Pacific Northwest with her partner and their beloved menace of a cat.
She is a chaser of dreams, a multi-disciplinary creative, and a lifelong student of the Divine.
Mythic Mashup is informed by a myriad of seemingly disparate personal interests; psychology, art, spirituality, sociology, mythology, nature, and writing, just to name a few. Following the same process as she does with her collages, Hannah breaks them down to their smallest pieces and brings them back together in a new form.
