Franziska Ulbricht, Northwest Territories - Canada's Indigenous Art Products Manufacturers

Based in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Franziska Ulbricht draws profound inspiration from the northern environment’s physical and sensory realities. Her creative process is fuelled by everyday ingenuity, a passion for music and performance, and the visual beauty of nature and human creations. Crafting jewellery from found objects, she cherishes the unexpected encounters with wearers. Winter months are dedicated to intricate animal drawings and personal interpretations of the surroundings. Mural and sign painting, occasional songwriting, and a culinary career further enrich their artistic expression. Summers are spent gardening and building. For Franziska, art is a multifaceted experience, balancing creation with personal transformation, a truly fulfilling endeavour.
