Artist Talk | Helen Sherriff at the ALC Library

Join artist Helen Sherriff to hear about her favourite works from the last 50 years or so.

A retrospective of Helen’s work is on display at the ALC Library as part of the South Australian Living Artists (SALA) festival, all through August.

Helen Sherriff is an experienced, award winning artist who graduated with Honours in Visual Art (University of South Australia, 2013) but her art career began as a commercial artist in 1969. Art teaching, community art work, murals, solo and group exhibitions followed. Her techniques and traditions include painting, woodcarving, textiles, and iconography. “I use old, often broken things, repurposed and redirected, as lives can be. The original brokenness works alongside the newness, adding strength. My art making has helped me to see how spiritual meaning is encased in the material world.”
