About
Helen’s work is a response to the landscape as a backdrop for human experience. She is interested in ideas about memory, sense of place and the changing environment; drawing from a broad range of cultural, historical and literary influences to explore her subject. In this way, each piece evolves organically through the lengthy proofing and printing process with its inherent combination of chance and accident. By combining directly observed elements with remembered and imaginary forms, Helen hopes to articulate something more elusive or unexpected.
