DE-FRAMe
The Database of Eco-friendly Art Materials
for artists and creative professionals
NB This project was initiated and created by Yuna Woo in her free time.
I did not receive any funding from institutions, companies or individuals to make this.
Yet, I received a lot of advice, support and inspiration from my colleagues who helped me to proof-read texts and make them more precise.
I am very thankful to these wonderful people:
Mikhail Shalepo, Alisa Smorodina, Olga Mironenko, Ivan Novikov
Made by Yuna Woo, 2025-2026
