Helen Tóth (born 17 July 1992) is a Slovak visual artist. She studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava. She is a three time finalist of the VÚB Painting Prize [1] [2] [3], also in 2022 was selected for the longlist of the STRABAG Artaward International award [4]. In 2022 was nominated for the Piero D'Amore E Colore Prize at The Others art fair in Torino, Italy. [5]
Helen belongs to the young generation of Slovak contemporary artists working in a field of painting, drawing, installation and land art. Her main focus lies on captivating the forest's otherness and to explore the limits of our existence in relation to the desire to become a forest and the meaning of a collective idea about the forest. In her essay "When the forest breathes it does through colors" [6] published in a Slovak Gender oriented Magazine Glosolália she reflects on how does the forest transmit awareness about itself to us, how is the forest revealing itself in the darkness and how can we archive the perception of an utroubled mind of an infant to connect with the entirety of a nature.
Her interest in a forest environment is not scientific or botanic. There are many ways to approach the forest, Helen studies nature from a visual point of view. She use in her artistic practice different mediums and techniques, sketches, analogue photography and fallen branches. She's collectiong soil [7] from the Slovak forest's and bringing them back to the gallery space as an installation. The viewers can read the differencies about regions also the current state of the forests.
She mainly depicts coniferous trees, with no crowns or leaves, sick or even broken ones for their dramatic and theatrical aspect. Portreiyng them the way the old masters did people, involving an imbalance of hues and biological instability, absurdity. Her ambition is to create something visually distinctive about branches and natural materials and shift attention that "dead" wood has got all the rights to remain part of the ecosystem.
