Helen Marten’s two and three-dimensional collages often incorporate screen-printed imagery, found objects and handcrafted elements.

Her work has also presented within the 56th Venice Biennale in 2015. Marten’s work is held in several major collections including the Arts Council Collection, London; Tate, London; Astrup Fearnley Museum, Oslo and Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam. She was awarded the Turner Prize and the Hepworth Prize for Sculpture in 2016. She lives and works in London.
