Dex Hannon

British Multimedia Artist, originally from Manchester now based in the North East. In 2025, he won the Collectors' Art Prize - Legends of Our Time Award. In 2020, he won best in show for the International Art Folio 2020 Annual award. In 2019, he was shortlisted for the Refresh Art Prize 2019.

His work encompasses paint, digital art, film, sound, and photography. His practice is an exploration of transformation and reinvention. At its core is a guiding question: “What else could it be?” A single frame can ignite an entire cascade of creation, a painting, a film or a digital work, each one carrying within it the potential for the next. In this recursive approach, the boundaries between mediums dissolve. Paintings give rise to films, films fracture into digital works, and digital interventions in turn inspire new material explorations. Nothing is ever final. Each work functions simultaneously as culmination and inception, a node within an expanding network of possibility.
