Collection Conversations - Sasha Wardell & Helen Wilks
Join us for October’s installment of our free series of art talks.
Next up in our series of art talks, we will be joined by Sasha Wardell and Helen Wilks.
Sasha has over 40 years’ experience in the world of bone china and porcelain, having studied in two centres of excellence: Stoke-on-Trent, United Kingdom, and Limoges, France. She has taken elements of this industry and adapted them to a studio environment. Sasha has concentrated on perfecting the craft-based skills which enhance the inherent qualities of bone china, and her carefully produced distinctive work embraces and reflects contemporary taste and lifestyle.
Helen Wilks was a student at the Bath Academy of Art, Corsham. She is a narrative painter, probably best known for three cycles of works: Childhood Fragments, Punch & Judy, and The Inhabited Space. Additionally, she has made many works based on theatre performance and collaborations. Autobiographical themes often occur in her work.
