Dylan Huw works with artists and words.
Approaching language – written, spoken, or found – as a “time-based” medium, his work tests what poetic and aesthetic pleasures can be generated from from communal processes of revising, overwriting, annotating, and mis/translating. It takes shape via processes of playful co-exploration with practitioners working in different disciplines, and finds public form as texts and editorial projects; workshops and convenings; and collaborations with artists on installations, performances, sound and video works. An interest in reflexive uses of documentary and archival materials, especially as they relate to histories of gay and minor/itised-language sociality, animates his artistic, critical, and curatorial sensibility.

He has been shortlisted twice for the International Award for Art Criticism, and his critical writing is published with Art Monthly, e-flux Criticism, O’r Pedwar Gwynt, Frieze, and Sight & Sound, among others. In 2025, he established Testun testun, a curatorial platform for expanded art/writing practice in Wales.

In 2026, he is representing Wales at the 61st Venice Biennale alongside Manon Awst with the collaborative project Sownd: an exploration of site-specific echoes and inheritances, incorporating sculpture, sound, texts, and a live performance programme on Welsh peatlands.
