RAG member: Mike Abrahams
Commissioned by the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, Mike Abrahams and artist Francesca Giuliano collected some 300 responses to how lockdown and coming out of lockdown affected people’s reading habits, distilling them into two aphorisms – I always read and I wish I’d read. The paintings were installed in May 2022 in the foyer of the library together with a regularly updated digital installation of Readers’ Reviews on screens in all the libraries across the borough.
