In the Latvian pictorial art the name of Helena Heinrihsone is associated with things distinctive only to her: being too open, too colorful, and too expressive.

"Inconsistent World" - it characterizes everything painted by Helena Heinrihsone. It reveals things just like the House of Mystery in Pompeii. The sensations are the same - all your life passing right by your eyes. Portraits and figural compositions - lovers, swimmers, lonely amber seekers, a woman - dancing and crying, sexual and flirtatious, fragile like porcelain, strong like a crucifix; still lives too, Baroque themes and landscapes - wild and beautiful, filled with sunsets, sea and water reflections, old baileys and cemeteries, city streets, house facades, running dogs, skulls and roses. The painter possesses the necessary strength and knowledge to return to her source - her origin. Similar to the romanticism in esthetics, Helena Heinrihsone puts revelation of feelings in the foundation of her artistic insight and deeds not mind, considering sensuality and spirituality as being the most important.

Keeping the irony and the grotesque inherent to her artistic language, the painter has created a peculiarly romanticized grasp of the world in her later works, starting with the painting "In the sea and the forest" in 2001. Working especially at the paintings of the new exhibition for the Latvian National Museum of Art in July 2007, Heinrihsone has already distinctively crossed the borders, customary called landscapes, thereby confirming her unpredictable view and bidding to talk about the courage, characteristic to her, of being different and changing to the yet unknown.

Helena Heinrihsone:

„It is an excitement for me - using completely real fragments of nature, such as roots of a fallen tree, chaos of a swamp or reflections in water, in a conditional composition."

"Bodies, heads, roses, and other things in paintings can be endlessly arranged and rearranged. That is how new worlds are formed, where I feel safe, where faces of summer wander from work to work...".

"Roses - with their perfection they remind, how fine is the line between beauty and exaggeration."

"All my life is solely in paintings.

The biggest disappointments. The biggest dramas are connected with my failures in painting. I have never had such experiences with people, as I have had with my paintings or the creations of others."
