Whether you’re an admirer of abstract, large-format art or dreaming of owning a hand-painted canvas, Freedom’s latest wall art collection, Re-Emergence, offers an accessible way to own a gallery-grade ‘forever piece.’
Hand-painted with acrylic and rich in layered textures, each piece is a one-of-a-kind creation. Some works reference natural forms and landscapes, while others explore themes of time, memory and emotion. Versatile by design, you can hang them in either portrait or landscape orientation, adapting them to your space and unique taste.
With prices starting at $350, Re-Emergence makes owning an original piece attainable. “Re-Emergence is about art that holds space emotionally and visually,” says Christie Maartensz, Freedom’s Head of Homewares. “We curated this range to be distinctly Freedom. It should feel personal – bold yet quiet, distinctive yet easy to live with. This is art designed to be part of your life for years, not just seasons.”
To inspire you to choose a piece to adorn your walls, we asked the Your Home and Garden team to share which works from the Re-Emergence collection resonated with them most. Remember, there are no rules – follow what speaks to you.

Our favourite Freedom wall art from the Re-Emergence collection
Into The Wild framed canvas
$600 at Freedom
“I am a green fiend. With large windows that open out to my garden, I’ve been slowly bringing the colour into the home with indoor plants and homewares. With this canvas, I can introduce the hue to my (rather boring) white walls. I adore the abstract nature of the artwork and the rough brush strokes that remind me of storms brewing on Aotearoa’s West Coast.”

Moments of Revelation canvas
$600 at Freedom
“I think art should evoke a sense of fun, and this piece definitely does! I love the free, slightly frenetic style. It reminds me of a scribble on a chalkboard, and would look quite striking hung on the exposed brick wall above my black leather sofa.”

Hazy Mangrove painted canvas
$700 at Freedom
Call me old-fashioned, but I like landscapes, and this painting does indeed look like a moody interpretation of mangroves. Or a modern abstract. Either way, it would look fantastic in my living room over my sofa. I’d have to spring for some dark grey and green cushions to make it feel at home.

Sweet Simplicity framed canvas
$960 at Freedom
“White brush strokes on a canvas and nothing else? Although this Freedom print is very minimal, to me, it evokes a feeling of calm. I’d hang this piece on the concrete wall in my living room, its chic monochromatic palette creating a space that’s as sophisticated as it can be with my toddler’s colourful toys scattered around.”

Radiance in the Darkness canvas
$2,390 at Freedom
“I can’t stop looking at this Freedom wall art – I think it’s the little burst of light in the centre of the painting. It feels very optimistic and reminds me of the way the sun peeks through the clouds on a rainy day. I’m imagining it on the wall between my dining room and kitchen, somewhere the light can hit it.”
