helena serget

Helena Serget came into Newcastle College this week, (13/03/13) and talked about her life so far as an artist. When Helena first graduated she became a theatre wardrobe dresser. She worked with a lot of famous people and met John Galliano, the famous fashion designer. She then thought she would study advertising and ended up working alongside Saatchi and Saatchi. She then went travelling and ended up entering a competition for the company Droog. Helena won this competition and her work to design a tshirt was manufactured. She went back a year later and her work was up on display in the shop. The next part of Helena's life she told us was her pet rat Tony Blair, she said she loved him and he was an artist rat not just a pet. This was so funny when she was telling us and here are some images of the work her pet rat tony made....
