Helena achieved a BA (Hons) degree in Fine Art, Sculpture and Expanded Practice at The National College of Art and Design (NCAD) in 2018. Her multimedia, sculptural installations investigate how human behaviour changes under observation. Her work particularly explores a range of complex issues including mass surveillance and power imbalances in society. However, since beginning the Professional Master of Education programme, Helena’s work has shifted to more delicate topics such as legacy, place and space which also informs her teaching practice.
