Helen Latham’s paintings focus on the 21st century self:  how do we relate to each other in a culture saturated by superficiality? Latham imbues her paintings with emotion through the careful use of colour and form. Art, as Latham shows, has a peculiar power to provoke emotion. It's what critic Clive Bell, in 1914, explained as the “aesthetic emotion”: the essential difference between art and all other objects. In Latham’s imagery, colour is used to affect an emotional response, and spatial devices are used to evoke a sense of belonging or alienation in the image’s narrative. In turn, each painting conjures memory to invoke empathy and contemplation of the self in direct relation to the other. 

Helen's work was selected for the 2023 Royal Academy Summer Exhibition.
