Zack Helwa

After studying BA Photography at the New York School of Visual Arts, Zack relocated to Berlin,
Germany, where he currently resides and works. He is a multidisciplinary artist using video,
photography, sculpture and performance; Helwa exhibits, curates and screens widely, whilst
simultaneously running FK-Kollektiv; a photography collective, exhibition space and printing lab in
Berlin.
Zack works with concepts using the perception of time in examining our object within nature and
historical contexts. He questions what will be seen of our society from a futuristic perspective in the
same way we examine ancient cultures as well as what is the new human within the context of our
present time. Zack sees our society from the perspective of us being a growing organism in constant
collaboration and conflict with our surroundings, thus likes to explore an artistic method of
serendipity. He connects art by chance as a way to find a true reflection of inevitable progression
and growth.
