About the Artist
Rochester Institute of Technology

The sources of ritual art in so-called ‘primitive’ cultures have always interested Jappie. Some of her work is about storytelling, legends and mythology. With great respect for ancient artifacts, the spiritual power in the objects themselves inform her work. Like most artists, the concepts behind her work are personal. However, her work to speaks about nature, metamorphosis, time, loss and the handmade object.
