DALE HARDY
Biography
As a visual artist I am naturally inquisitive, have an affinity to making things and am drawn to communicating through images, texts and the physical objects I create.
Based in Sunderland in the North East of England, my practice centres around exploring who we are, how we navigate our lives and explore the present, past and future relationships which make us who we are today.
Born in Bournemouth, UK, 1974
Lives and Works in Sunderland, United Kingdom
Current Projects
I am currently an Artists Futures Fund 2024-2025 Fellow, with a residency at the University of Sunderland.
I am currently working on a new body of work for exhibition in London, October 2025.
