- Helen Marshall (born 1971) is a British visual artist working with photography and new media. She is best known for her socially engaged and participatory approach to creating public art works which are held in public and private collections. These are often situated in the wider public realm rather than in the context of the gallery or museum. Her work is held in public and private collections, many of which commemorate and celebrate historic events, well-known figures and ordinary individuals. Marshall is an honorary member of the Townswomen’s Guilds. Some of the public art works that she is most noted for include a record-breaking photo mosaic measuring 857.3 square metres (9,228 sq ft) and including 112,896 photographs, The Big Picture, (2008), a portrait of 17-year-old Arthur James Bunce training as an amateur boxer which was unveiled outside Thinktank, Birmingham Science Museum at Millennium Point and a diptych photo mosaic depicting the Queen at the time of her coronation in 1953 and her Diamond Jubilee in 2012. This 38 square metre work consisting of 5,000 photos is currently installed at Terminal 2 in Gatwick Airport, south east England. (en)
