As well as being an artist, Helen Gyngell is a gardener/garden designer and it is her observations of plant life and organic decay that provides much of the inspirations for her work. She is one of our most recent discoveries. I look forward to seeing what other exciting pieces her fertile imagination and deft fingers can create.
In addition to metalwork, I also work with green wood to make sculptural indoors chairs.
