Artist in Residence

Artist in Residence: Helen Worgan

Helen Worgan is our current Artist in Residence; much of Helen’s work is rooted in exploring memories influenced particularly by her upbringing in South Africa. With a rich career history in the arts B.C – before children, as cited by Helen – she worked in studio management where she worked in various creative industries from print and production to digital photography and publishing. She has recently completed a Foundation Diploma in Art and Design at Reigate School of Art and is now undertaking an MA in Fine Art at Falmouth University. Her highly experimental practice spans across many mediums; paper making, weaving, illustration, and casting to name a few. Helen passionately believes in the power of art and the valuable role creativity can play in mental health.
