About the Artist:
Born in London and based in New York, Lucy Helton received her master's degree in fine art photography from Hartford Art School, CT, in 2014. Rising from a necessity to express her personal anxieties and concerns about the environment, Actions of Consequence, her first photo book, was nominated for the MACK First Book Award 2014, shortlisted for the Kassel Dummy Award 2015, and The Anamorphosis Prize 2015. Her most recent book Transmission (Silas Finch, 2015) – a message from our future to our recent past – was shortlisted for the Paris Photo-Aperture First Book Award 2015. Helton approaches the landscape systematically, aiming to create an experience of exploration and examination. Gaining a HAM radio General Class license, she continues to test the boundaries of art and technology by making long and short-range image transmissions. Helton's books are collected by the Cleveland Institute of Art, MoMA, MET, Brooklyn Museum, Houston Center of Photography, Hirsch Library at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston, and the David M. Rubinstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library at Duke University, among others.
