Helje Eelma is a Member of the Estonian Association of Designers and the Estonian Graphic Designers Association. She studied design at the Estonian Institute of Art and graduated in 1983 as a graphic designer. Since then, she has been designing various kinds of printed materials. She worked as a freelancer for twelve years and started working at the design office LeArt Design Management in 1994. She is currently in the process of starting a private enterprise.

In addition to taking joy in her professional work, she also enjoys expressing herself in other ways from time to time. As a result, she has created pictures and texts that have been presented at exhibitions in Tallinn, Stockholm, Pärnu and Karepa. Her digital images have been inspired by the landscapes and cultures of different countries and have been created through the combination of drawing and photoprocessing techniques. This exhibition consists of pictures inspired by travels to Peru, the islands of Scotland, Sri Lanka, Malta, and Madagascar. The artist has also “consecrated” our own Nordic homeland. Also, last but not least, a section of the exhibition is devoted to China and consists of the most recent images made in 2010.
