Helen Gorrill’s work is held in private collections worldwide and now represented in New York Brooklyn Museum’s Elizabeth A Sackler Center for Feminist Art archive, alongside feminist icons The Guerrilla Girls, Tracey Emin, Annie Sprinkle, Miriam Schapiro, Judy Chicago and Pipilotti Rist. Having already gained national and international press attention for her controversial drawings, this year Gorrill has exhibited in London, Paris and Dubai, and has been shortlisted for 2012 Passion for Freedom, an international award and exhibition that showcases art that makes a difference.
