Since 2000 she exclusively works as an artist doing painting, photography and sculptures . She presents her work in several countries by single and group exhibitions.
Her artistic main focus is on the human being, expressing it in body-language, spirit and mind. Her life in India brings new artistic aspects. During a five months long stay in winter 2005/06 at the international Township of Auroville, the so called “City of the Future”, a change happened in her artistic work: traces of this special living space was collected and condensed in a large work that was exhibited in both India and Germany. She picks up this thread in winter 2008/09 in the search of the spiritual and energetic substance of man and nature using collage, painting, frottage etc.After being part of some thematic orientated group exhibitions, Helgard used a longer stay in Germany (2015) to work for some weeks intense at the Art-Akademie Allgäu, (Germany) integrating new technical ways to express in her artwork. Her artistic roots figurative painting shows a developing towards abstract painting. She is integrating for example parts of (international) news paper and Indian fabrics in her paintings which are partly in big formats. Through that she picks up again the energetic aspect of internationality. 2017 she starts the process to work on a 6m hight kinetic stainles steel sculpture with 3 figures. The name is “Marathon”. The Inaughuration was 3/2019 in Auroville, Mahalakshmi Park
