See Helen’s work in New York in a group show titled “Reclaiming a Space” at the Irish Arts Center through June 23. In this show, “four women artists from Ireland and the diaspora explore notions of home, place and displacement, and identity through different media and styles within the practices of abstract art. Representing both the hard-edged and the lyrical, and ranging from oil painting to sculpture, their work shines a light on the genre’s reclamation of physical and cultural spaces that historically have been occupied by more traditional forms within the canon.”
