Dex Hannon is a British interdisciplinary artist based in Blyth, North East England, originally from Manchester, working across contemporary abstract expressionist painting, digital art, moving image, sound and photography.

His practice is driven by transformation and reinvention, guided by a recurring, simple question: "What else could it be?" A single image can trigger a chain of works that migrate between media through repetition, revision and recontextualisation. Pieces move from image to film and back again: films built through stop-frame animation and digital manipulation are later examined frame by frame, with chosen compositions becoming standalone digital works, or the DNA for new paintings and music, each iteration adding a fresh texture. This cyclical method foregrounds process as both subject and philosophy, inviting viewers into a space where memory, perception and imagination stay in motion, and where no work is treated as final.

His work is held in private collections internationally and has featured in books and magazines in the UK and US. Career highlights include Best in Show at the International Art Folio Annual Awards (2020) and The Collectors Art Prize, Legends of Our Time Award (2025), with exhibitions and presentations across the UK and internationally, including London, Peru, Miami Art Week and the Venice Biennale. He has also been commissioned for public art projects, including Blythian Memes (2025) and Future Energy (2026). He is available for original artworks, commissions, public art, digital and moving-image projects, sound and visual collaborations, exhibition opportunities, artist talks and interviews.
