Helen Denerley (born 1956) is a Scottish sculptor. Much of her work is made from reused scrap and is inspired by the animal world.[1][2]

Notable public sculpture includes Dreaming Spires (two giraffes) on Leith Walk, Edinburgh,[3] unveiled in July 2005.[4] Other works include Dragons at the Eniwa Garden Project, Hokkaido, Japan; various sculptures at the Horizon Enterprise Park, Forres; and a large fossil at the Hugh Miller Museum, Cromarty.[5]

Denerley lives in Strathdon, Aberdeenshire.[4][6]
