Helen Maudsley is an Australian artist, who has been described as "one of Australia's most tenacious and perhaps most underrated artists". Born in Melbourne in 1927, Maudsley has had regular solo exhibitions since 1957. She is best known for her complex paintings and drawings that use abstraction and visual analogy to describe inner and outer worlds. Maudsley describes her paintings as "visual essays", in that they are focused, methodical attempts to explore a concept. Through exploration of visual language, Maudsley uses lines, numbers, shapes, letters, geometry and symbols to construct geometric labyrinth-like compositions that explore her everyday experiences.
