About

Helen’s work is concerned with a phenomenological experience of space and place and how this can be translated through a visual arts practice.

She utilizes drawing, sculpture, pinhole photography and more recently site-specific photographic installations to explore our perception of space and place. Walking is a central part of her practice and an important element of the process by which she makes work.

Formerly a teacher, she retrained as an artist, graduating with a distinction in an 'MA by Project in Fine Art'.
Her final MA project 'The Space of Place' looked at how pinhole photography could translate a phenomenological experience of space in non-urban place; in doing so it explored the relationship between time and photographic process and approached photography as both a visual and physical construct.
