STATEMENT

Working in the space between image and object Helen Horgans work is an enquiry into systems of thought and belief through unorthodox archival and autobiographical methods. Taking the form of a sculptural diary it involves ongoing personal attempts at grasping the production of incidents of meaning, as played out through the logic of language and the mechanics of her artistic processes. Responding to the qualities of a variety of materials including fabric, sound and text, visually excessive spaces evolve where the idiosyncratic aspects of human nature are allowed to unfold.
