Saipua

Saipua is home to the creative practices of artist and educator Sarah Ryhanen and her network of collaborators and co-conspirators. Saipua began in 2006 with a Brooklyn studio devoted to the dual crafts of flower arranging and soap-making (Saipua means “soap” in Finnish, a nod to Sarah’s heritage and the tradition of Sauna). Through her floral practice, Sarah has cultivated a distinct aesthetic, inspiring a broad movement in floral design.
