Helen Chadwick- Conceptual Artist

Helen Chadwick was a British conceptual installation artist who was nominated for the Turner Prize in 1987 and sadly died in 1996. Her work is provocative, controversial and thought provoking, dealing with ideas of the human body, sometimes reflecting the unease she felt with her own body.

This winter, from September 2012 to February 2013, some of Chadwick's work is on display in Leeds at the Henry Moore Institute.
