In May 2014, Richards was nominated for the Turner Prize[4] for Rosebud, a 13-minute black and white video that includes video clips and photographs taken from erotic books in a Tokyo library, all of which have had the genitalia scratched out to comply with censorship laws.[2] In 2013, Rosebud was included in the 55th Venice Biennale, Il Palazzo Enciclopedico (The Encyclopedic Palace), curated by Massimiliano Gioni. In 2017, he was featured in the Whitney Biennial, and represented Wales at the 56th Venice Biennale.
