Green Hill Gallery SPLIT OPEN Exhibition
identity, connectivity & community
Split Open attempts to take a closer look at the landscape of uncertainty, temporally detached from definite points of orientation. People’s approach to life has changed over the past year. How do the changes in connectivity impact one's understanding of one another and themselves? Do we form our identity dependently, inter-dependently, or independently from others? How correlated or separated are we from our environment?
Presenting an international group of artists, the exhibition depicts a universe in which humankind is being separated, lives are split apart, yet this new reality carries the possibility of discovering the similarities and differences in people, and the need for others in order to see and experience the fullness and beauty that is in
individuals, culture, and community.
Through the medium of installations, videos, paintings, and prints, the exhibition brings together artworks that examine from different angles the nature of relationships, the importance of interaction, the journey of self-discovery, and identity anxiety.

“My pictorial work was born from the self-reflection of our identity and how we perceive our existence.
The goal of my work is to show a simplification of the human being in a primary and pure state. To reach this state a lonely journey into our human condition is necessary, hereby the contemporary world in which we live in has to be given up. A deconstruction of our consciousnesses, a reformulation of ourselves, a microscopic advancement to our existence.”

“I create a special art about the subtle matters invisible to the eye, about the beauty of details, about the fleeting and simplest. The attention to detail and the habit of looking at the world with wide eyes taught me how to interact with the world of ideas, to choose and feel those that may be close to many people.”

“The long standing theme of my work is “human”. In other words, when I reflected on my curiosity and interests, “human” is always there. When I am among people, I start to think “what is human and human nature?” People unite and share their emotion through their common interest in nature. It happen very naturally that is possible without any artificial effort. I observe them all and try to express the composition and order that they make.”

“In meiner Wahrnehmung wird der Raum selbst zum Sprecher; diesen zu verstärken und zu verstehen, habe ich mir nicht zuletzt mit Lichtkonzepten- und Installationen zur Aufgabe gemacht.
Mir geht es in meinen Arbeiten um eine nachhaltige künstlerische Praxis, die weder in die Dienstbarmachung von Fähigkeiten auspendelt, aber ebenso wenig in die künstlerische Isolation führt.”

"In general, my work is shaped around the processes I have experienced. When dealing with a topic, the most important factor is my own experiences, and then I try to weave the conceptual network between thoughts.
My interest in video and motion pictures naturally triggered me to examine the perceptions of duration and time. When I started to research the concept of time and space, my path became a combination of science, art and philosophy.

For Helena art is an open dialogue with the world, where the other side of the mirror reflects a sphere of experiences in which the physical and the abstract coexist harmoniously. Her artwork takes a personal approach to social, political, cultural and environmental issues. She engages with different subjects, combining different poetical symbolism and arranging them into new conceptually layered pieces.
