b. 1991, Baltimore, Maryland.
Lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. Abby Cheney explores how we assign value to objects based on emotion through her sculptures and paintings made from discarded cardboard, paper pulp, and found materials. Taking cues from household appliances, decorative trends, and domestic spaces, her works are humorous and precarious representations of how our homes and possessions become personal.
