Arts and Culture Frankston

Description

Phone: 1300 322 842

Returning to her home town of Frankston to make this work, Rich has focused on her relationship to the environment. Abstract shapes come from cellular structures to represent pathways and a return to home. A contorted body hangs from the roof, feeling unsettled but also somewhat comfortable. The colours flow across the three sides of the building to create a cohesive yet multi-faceted work.
