Retold objects of the past. The Artworks and practice of Helen Clara Hemsley

Storytelling and, of course, the conceptual element is vital to Helen's work. Often pieces start with the idea and then technique, form and materials come afterwards. Titles play a very important role too, but she also tries to present her work in a way that allows the viewer to see the work without the titles first, so they can build their own picture of what it is all about before reading the titles.
