Helo, I’m Dylan Huw and I work with artists and words. I live in Caernarfon, in Cymru/Wales’ coastal north-west.
My practice takes public form as texts and editorial projects; workshops and convenings; and collaborative installations, performances, sound and video works. This work is invested in communal processes of revising and reworking, overwriting and annotating, erring and mis/translating. I play with what forms of pleasure, knowledge and relation might be generated from approaching language as a time-based material, as a site of continuous exchange and re/iteration. My sensibility is guided by an interest in reflexive uses of documentary and archival materials, especially as they relate to histories of gay and minor/itised-language sociality.
I have been shortlisted twice for the International Award for Art Criticism, and my critical writing is published with Art Monthly, e-flux Criticism, O’r Pedwar Gwynt, Frieze, and Sight & Sound, among others. In 2025, I established Testun testun, a curatorial platform for expanded art/writing practice in Wales.
In 2026, I am 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.
