Hanne Eriksen Mapp

Hanne Eriksen Mapp has been in the art field for the past 37 years studying in Denmark, California and Japan. After 22 years as a professional ceramicist she began jewellery making in NZ while on a one year sabbatical.

Beautiful items, whether made by nature or mankind are reflected in her work. Treasures such as amber, jade, coral, turquoise, precious stones and lapis lazuli inspire her. She uses this matrix to form jewellery, which reflects her travels, knowledge and her background as a Viking. Good design, craftsmanship and the need to create are her force. She lives in Paraparaumu with carver husband Owen Mapp.

Hanne has been a part-time tutor throughout her career and enjoys interacting with people: "Compared to the other institutions I've worked at, TLC is unique in the way the individual is valued, and allowed to develop and express ideas at their own pace."
