About the artist

Frances Richardson (b. 1965, Leeds) lives and works in London. Richardson attended art school in Norwich, later followed by an MA in sculpture at the RoyalCollege. After beginning with number-drawings, Richardson moved on to the use of plus and minus signs where she promptly found her own voice, and has developed this way of working ever since. Some of her drawings are exploratory designs for larger scale ‘architectural’ pieces, but the majority have been created in sets of variations on a single theme, such as the moon, or playing cards, or currencies. Solo-show venues include: Gasworks, London; Daniel Weinberg Gallery, Los Angeles; The Scene Gallery, New York and Corn Exchange Gallery.
