In her art, she addresses universal themes such as puberty, sexuality, the loss of innocence, consumption, domestication, gender roles, androgyny, and the body image in contemporary American society. She is collaborating with URBAN NATION on Project M/14 in 2019.
After a master class in painting and several apprenticeships in the US and abroad, Freymuth-Frazier began to develop her own style by drawing on historical references. Her influences range from Balthus and Margaret Keanes to Caravaggio and Rembrandt. This unique combination leads to a kind of hybrid between lowbrow aesthetics and the delicate technique of the Old Masters. Freymuth-Frazier’s works are exhibited internationally in galleries and can be found in private collections around the world. She has received attention and reviews from numerous publications.
