Helly's Story

Late in life, Helly was subjected to years of sustained, serious, emotional and physical abuse - by an institution which is paid to care for citizens.

The brain damage caused by the immense shock of being abused in this way, resulted in a sudden desire and ability to draw.   Prior to the brain damage, Helly had zero ‘art’ ability, nor interest in, nor any contact with, the art world.  With zero lessons, these drawings emerged.

All profits and Helly's entire estate, are donated to those who are also suffering abuse.

Frequently Asked Questions

We are happy to answer your questions. Please email hellyripphin@gmail.com.

Helly has been drawing for less than 1000 hours so far. Refer Instagram for regular updates on this. Helly suddenly began drawing, without any previous interest nor ability, following the deep shock resulting from sustained physical and emotional abuse.

It is a known medical event that some people, when they are subjected to immense trauma and/or a deep shock, suddenly develop a new skill, often at an advanced level. There are examples where people have suddenly begun playing music, creating art, performing mathematics, or speaking other languages, at an advanced level - with no formal training.
