Helen Wright: Shapeshifting: works from the archives
"Helen Wright’s contribution to Tasmanian and Australian art is both profound and enduring. She reminds us that to shapeshift is not only to change form, but to remain open — to uncertainty, and to beauty in all its forms."
- Dr Kellie Wells, Lead Curator, QVMAG
In anticipation of the survey exhibition, Shapeshifting: The Art of Helen Wright, at the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery from August 23,2025, and to celebrate the launch of the bespoke publication, Shapeshifting, Helen Wright, published by OUTSIDE THE BOX / Earth Arts Rights, we present a "Director’s Pick" of notable works, highlighting the depth and significance of Helen Wright’s artistic practice over the course of four decades.
You are invited to the book launch of Shapeshifting, Helen Wright, at 2pm on the 16th of August at Bett Gallery.
