Helen Gallogly

Helen Gallogly a multi-disciplinary artist and maker specialising in textiles and surface pattern. Her work often references functional objects as vessels to work within site-specific contexts.

Her interests are very much rooted in the past; from historic sites and buildings, museum collections and found objects to folk tales and ghost stories. With an interest in storytelling, she builds narrative threads through her work, finding relationships between elements of research, she forms visual responses to encourage new connections with locations and spaces.

‘Growing up around an antiques & second hand furniture shop, our family home was filled with curiosities and collectables of all kinds. My love of objects and artworks from past eras grew from this exposure and the interest and influence has never left me.’

Gallogly works from her studio in Comrie, Perthshire.
