Different Roads textile

40 cm x 30 cm x 2 cm 2023

To me, creating an artwork is like drawing with a needle and thread. By playing with different stitches, shadow and relief is created within the artwork. By letting the end threads hang I create a dramatic effect. They form the movement and fantasy of the artwork.

Helis

Helis was born and raised in Estonia. She is currently residing in Canada. In her younger years she was more into oil painting but around 2010, she focused on pencil and has stayed in this medium ever since. Helis’ artwork is compromised of critical views on social, political, and cultural issues. She also incorporates simple joys and light in everyday life. While she portrays real plants and animals they represent actual events, public and/or social figures. She uses her art as a medium of storytelling through traditional materials like graphite and pastel pencils on cotton paper. Her goal is to inspire those who see her work to look more carefully at the world around us, find beauty and acknowledge parts that we tend to turn a blind eye to. helispodnek.com @podnek
