About Helena

Helena Geiger is a contemporary visual artist with an Indigenous heritage of Gumbayngirr, from Northern NSW. Helena’s work is heavily inspired by nature's detail. Helena describes herself as an Indigenous artist producing landscape inspired work that is contemporary and relevant to current times.

Our sea is home to abundant marine life, and Aboriginal people have relied on these natural resources for thousands of years. This design tells a story that celebrates our Sea Country, including our tropical Islands and coral reefs and all the colourful seashells & seaweed scattered along the soft, cool sand and hidden in the shallow saltwater rockpools.
