The Stanthorpe creative community is very sad to hear of Helen Robinson’s passing.

Helen has been a part of the Stanthorpe Art Prize since 2016. Helen was also a runner-up in the Stanthorpe Local Art Prize in 2019.

We are very proud to hang Helen’s work The Burning Tree in the 2021 Stanthorpe Art Prize. Her passion for nature and photography is apparent in her artist’s statement:

“Australia is famous for its diversity. It’s our natural wonders, wide-open spaces, our cities, beaches, the deserts and the bush. I see the beauty in the harshness of the land. I don’t see a picture I feel it and my passion is to bring that feeling and emotion to each picture that I take.”

Our thoughts and condolences are with Helen’s family and friends.
