Capturing beauty and
finding meaning in
life’s ordinary moments.
Driven by personal narratives, my art is a story of discovering beauty in the ordinary and insights in adversity.
Essentially, it is about redefining labels, seeing things in your own unique way and coming back to who you truly are, before the world told you who you should be.
Photography is my core art practice, but I also work in collage, painting and textile design, as I continue to define what matters to me, and what brings me joy. More about me

Helen’s work is defined by its ability to alchemise brokenness into beauty. She transforms her subject matter into bold, abstract compositions that convey something tangible and emotionally resonant.
