The exhibition traces the entire career of Helen Chadwick (1953–1996), from her early conceptual works such as In the Kitchen (1977) to the celebrated Piss Flowers (1991–92). Recognized as a pioneering figure in abject art, Chadwick combined refined aesthetic elements with unconventional materials, including bodily fluids, meat, flowers, chocolate, and compost. With irony and a feminist perspective, she redefined the boundaries of sculpture and installation, establishing herself as a leading figure of the postwar British avant-garde and, in 1987, among the first women nominated for the Turner Prize.
