Brandon Minga is an artist, welder, and entrepreneur based in Wisconsin. Minga is the creative force behind House of RAD, a Milwaukee-based collaborative workspace for over 60 resident artists and makers.
Minga has a background in illustration and graphic design, which led him to work in the metal fabrication, welding, and sculpture world. Some of his notable projects include a large-scale jellyfish sculpture called Salve-Jelly made from recycled materials in Green Bay and an upcoming 22-foot wide set of metal glasses to be installed in Milwaukee's Third Ward.
Minga emphasizes the importance of collaboration and supporting the local creative community through initiatives like their annual fundraiser "Feed Your Soul." As House of RAD expands to a new 67,000 square foot facility, Minga continues to push the boundaries of his metalworking skills and create unique public art installations.
Brandon also talks about making props for the 2022 independent slapstick comedy film "Hundreds of Beavers", becoming a brand ambassador for Miller Electric, and his experience with Burning Man.
