About Helanville,
“mysterious artists’ accommodation”
(broadcaster
VPRO)
Helanville is created by Helcia Cino in 1996.
Main goal was and is exposing the work of art of Helcia. But in those 'website
pioneering days', more artist inhabited Helanville and exposed their work as
well.
Helanville has been awarded as
Best Website
several times (a.o. newspaper NRC, Xs4all.nl, Digital City).
Helanville is built with all kind of material washed
ashore. It has been renovated and expanded several times.
The Bounty Island
has become an artwork of its own.
At
www.helcia.com you can view the work
without any beaches or pools.
