Krystopher Sapp

Assemblage artist Kristopher Sapp likes to stay locked up in his studio and create highly detailed, dark and twisted worlds in the form of mixed media assemblage. For “The Devil’s Hand Minor,” Sapp has created a 14 piece show based on the Tarot’s “Suit of Swords,”focusing on the meanings and emotion that each card carries. While Sapp has incorporated dark elements in each piece, he also makes sure that every one is pleasing to the eye.Inspired by his favorite horror and sci-fi movies, war history books and intense nightmares, his works are cultivated from fear and molded into beauty. Sapp uses found objects and items purchased at Home Depot -the place he calls his “art supply store.”By day, Sapp is a commercial artist and has created album cover, t-shirt and poster art for bands such as Demented Are Go, Meteors,Necromantics, Tiger Army, 45 Grave, Penis Flytrap, Zombie Ghost Train and many others.
