Artists in Conversation: Helen Heslop, Fenja T. Ringl, and Christine Upton

Belconnen Arts Centre

Join a free artists' talk with Helen Heslop, Fenja T. Ringl, and Christine Upton to learn more about their practice and artworks in their exhibitions at Belco Arts. About the Artists: Helen Heslop is a Canberra-based contemporary artist whose works illuminate social issues, trauma and healing. She plays with pattern and repetition through a unique blend of sculpture, digital collage and textiles. Dr Fenja T. Ringl is a printmaker whose practice explores nature's intricate patterns, textures, and layered histories. She works across a range of printmaking techniques, often integrating traditionally paper-based methods with pottery processes to produce distinctive ceramic artworks. Christine Upton is a multidisciplinary artist and owner of the Wacky Bird Gallery in Corowa, NSW. Recognised as a master printmaker, her strikingly detailed artworks are created from hand-carved vinyl blocks and incorporate layers of intricate pattern and colour.
