‘A gallery, A game’ is inspired by the wooden bead games from childhood. It is both playful and scathing in one. Like in their most recent solo exhibition at Mars, ‘Paths that go where people don’t want them to go’, Abbey’s interest lies in mimicking what urban designers often do; beautifying the problem. Making comments whilst also making something fun that can engage an audience.

Abbey Rich
I’m most interested in public space, particularly community co-designed public art making. My work predominantly looks at pattern, gender and environment, with collaboration being a large pillar of my practice. My work intends to be easily approachable, to be welcoming and appeal to many people through colour, pattern and warmth. With large public art commissions for City of Casey and yapang Sculpture Park, Lake Macquarie and Camden Council.
