Where You Left Painting

Helena Palazzi, born and raised in Sweden, embarked on her artistic journey as a young teenager; channeling her passion for visual storytelling by carrying around a secondhand analog camera everywhere she went. Hours spent in her family's garage- turned into a black & white darkroom- solidified her love for the art form. In 1993, Helena's path led her to Italy, her father's homeland, where she co-founded a photography and art studio alongside a group of talented young creatives. Fueling her artistic growth, she enrolled at the prestigious Academy of Fine Arts Pietro Vanucci in the region of Umbria. It wasn't long before she held her first solo exhibition, marking the beginning of a series of showcases that featured her photography, paintings, and mixed media art. In 1998, Helena's artistic aspirations drew her to New York City, where she pursued a career in commercial photography. Her seductive and refined images caught the attention of renowned clients and creatives worldwide, propelling her into collaborations with some of the industry's luminaries. In 2019, Helena made Kingston, NY her home, and she launched Art by Helena Palazzi, a fine art studio that allows her to explore her creative depths. Helena is currently showing her work in various solo and group exhibitions around Hudson Valley and New York State. With her distinctive fusion of artistry she consistently produces visual art that profoundly resonates with viewers.
