The event is presented by JoshJames of Beyond The Gallery.Work by Helen DuckworthDuckworth offers the following statement,“This grouping of pictures attemptsto tap beneath the surface of things: aface, a relationship, a quiet moment ofreflection. The process of thought issuspended, the faces come into focus,hitherto unknown. The touch of a hand, anarm gently enfolding. These gestures arean invitation to come in, to share what we already know, this familiar feeling underneaththe veil of thought. It is like the firsttime our mother held us in her arms.”Duckworth was born in the north ofEngland and came to the United States inthe 1960’s, settling in New York City andstudying intermittently at the Art StudentsLeague and the School of Visual <strong>Arts</strong>.She is both a poet and an artist which isapparent in the way she paints, choosingto work from an inner place of imagination,memory and feeling. Mostly paintingin oil, she does venture into mixed-mediaexpression but she always returns to thelusciousness of the quality of oil whichshe has become addicted to, she says.Duckworth’s work for the last twentyfiveyears has been a culmination of herfeelings about life and her personal journeyof love and sorrow and the ever-presentquestion of inner work and relationshipto something hidden.The Real Estate Studio is the downtownoffice of Dunes Properties, aboutique real estate, vacation rental andproperty management company servingthe Charleston area since 1989.
