Artist @Wendy Helliwell Art

Edinburgh, GB

I am a visual artist representing diversity within my practice, mixing multiple unconventional materials with traditional media.Predominately celebrating fashion, style and identity using recycled medium appropriate materials including make-up, fabric, labels, tags, receipts amongst many more throw away effects coupling them with disassembled and torn glossy fashion magazines.Many layers within my practice illustrate the superficialness of appearance alone and embracing the rich dimensions of our natural and cultural differences which run deep within.Whilst simultaneously depicting consumerism, fast fashion and advertising with a much deeper significance than just the fun and colourful visuals they initially portray.
