Hi! My name is Lena Pointner.
After studying graphic design and linguistics in Vienna and Cologne, I worked as a research associate until early 2022.
Since then, I have become a freelance illustrator, combining my two passions:
art and linguistics.
I make illustrations for:
• Stimulus and Elicitation Materials
• Children’s Books
• Book Covers
• Pictograms, Logos and Icons
• Language Learning Materials
• Visualization for Science Communication
• Dictionary Illustrations
• Maps
• …
Some previous projects:
Carrying Verbs Stimuli
A series of 44 illustrations for the
elicitation of different carrying verbs
made for the Out of Papua project
at the VU Amsterdam in 2022
Qaqet Song- and Storybook
A children’s book for the speakers of the Qaqet language (Papua New Guinea)
made as a part of the Qaqet child language project at the University of Cologne in 2022
