Minigolf Deportivo

Minigolf Deportivo is a small publishing house, founded in 2016 in Santiago, Chile, and now based in Berlin. We publish visual work across photography, illustration, painting, and writing, producing small-run, often handmade editions in close collaboration with artists. Beyond books, we focus on connections, ideas, and exploring printed matter’s possibilities.
This project is directed by Francisca, who oversees editing, design, printing, binding, and distribution. Since its founding, it has become a life project, a creative space for experimentation, reflection, and the appreciation of art emerging outside institutions. Over the past ten years, Francisca has collaborated with more than 40 emerging artists, publishing their work not only to share it, but also as a way to reflect on the process of creating books/zines, and to foster meaningful connections.

Flipbook that explores the exercise of opening to silence from pranayama, a breathing exercise where each inhalation and exhalation is a journey back to oneself, traveling through the sounds of the body, embracing memories that reside in our fibers, to make room for the new; the unknown, what is yet to come.

An intimate ritual of writing that takes shape in the pages of an old composition book. In a personal way, Brayan addresses themes such as love, sadness, hope and devotion where his personal writing is interlaced with symbols and cartoons characters that emerge from his memories.

Is an unpretentious writing exercise, in which Trinidad explores childhood memories and everyday scenes, moving between melancholy and fiction, with the certainty that probably no one will read them. These ten poems, written between 2020 and 2025, dialogue between transparencies with screenshots, illustrations and errors.
