Helen Morgan

Lives and works in Sydney NSW, Australia

Artist statement

Helen Morgan is an emerging artist from Sydney, Australia, working in the fields of printmaking, photography and installation. Her work explores our relationship with the overlooked objects that fill our lives, informed by Helen’s upbringing in her century-old maternal family home in south-western Sydney and her Egyptian-Australian heritage. Helen's work centres on an intuitive approach to etching, printing in an iterative manner to search for colours that resonate with her perceptual experiences.
