SOLD: Mikiwi

Created by Otis Frizzell

Otis Frizzell’s “Mikiwi” cleverly references the most famous mouse in the world.

The title adds a bilingual pun to the mix. In te reo, “miki” means to mix up, mix or combine – a mouse and a kiwi!

Mikiwi has been sold and is no longer on the Kiwi Art Trail.

Otis and his wife Sarah also run The Lucky Taco truck and food brand. When he isn’t on the grill serving up the best tacos in the country, Otis is at The Area with Mike Weston trying to figure out how to get an artwork in every home in Aotearoa.
