Debra Yepa-Pappan, a Korean and Jemez Pueblo artist, uses digital imagery to explore and affirm her mixed-race identity. Beginning with black-and-white photography that challenged Native American stereotypes, she shifted toward work that centers her own lived experience, conveying pride in both her cultures. By blending symbolic imagery from Korean and Pueblo traditions with a contemporary pop aesthetic, she highlights resonances across her identities. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and is held in major collections, including the Museum of Contemporary Native Art and the British Library. Yepa-Pappan lives in Chicago with her husband and daughter.
