I remember seeing Helen's work way back in first year - in particular the mapping work she did for the graduate show. I really liked her illustrative style and the concept of mapping a house or a process such as food preparation. It was nice to see a graduate from our course taking a different route after finishing in Manchester. She really enjoyed working in her own style and was confident in pursuing what she loves despite not knowing where it may take her.
Her current work and investigations into creating print making devices or machines is really interesting and the work she has produced is quite unique.
I empathized with Helen because I have recently been unsuccessful with some graduate applications and being rejected by a place you really want to go to is quite hard. She now see's her first rejected application to the RCA as a "Blessing in disguise" and you really have to give the decision some perspective - It can all work out in the end.
I wish her all the best I think she'll be really successful.
