She Moves through Everything

This artwork is a vivid eruption of colour and movement — a piece that feels alive the moment you encounter it. Sweeping strokes of magenta, gold, ochre and electric pink collide and merge, creating a sense of irresistible motion, as though the painting is in the very act of becoming. The heavy impasto carries a physicality that draws viewers closer, letting them almost feel the energy rising off the surface.

In this enigmatic work, colour and form blur into a world where nothing stays still. A figure seems to emerge in the tidal sweep of paint, moving through an internal landscape, memory, and dream all at once. The piece radiates both energy and quiet mystery — a true statement artwork that transforms the space around it.

Known for her bold use of colour and texture, Helen Andrade creates striking, emotionally resonant works that balance abstraction and figuration. Her layered surfaces and dreamlike compositions invite personal connection, making each piece both visually captivating and psychologically rich.

"I create artworks that delve into the emotional layers of identity and memory. I'm drawn to the vibrancy of bold hues and the tactile quality of textured surfaces. Using a range of mixed media—acrylic, oil stick, charcoal, felt-tip, ink, and sometimes collage—I build dreamlike spaces where figures may appear and disappear, suspended between presence and absence.

My process is intuitive and layered, allowing each work to emerge gradually, embracing ambiguity and emotional depth. While I often include figures, these are not traditional portraits; they exist as psychological spaces—open for viewers to find their own resonance within the ambiguity."

Helen describes her art as dreamlike, emotional, feminine, and psychological. Her style blends abstraction, figuration, expressionism, and surrealism.

With over 30 years of dedication to her practice, Helen holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts with Distinction and continues to passionately create works that connect with audiences around the world.
