Through sensory acts of world-building, Hayden Dunham immerses their audiences within dynamic and ever-shifting ruptures of reality. Their sculptures, which take on diverse forms, act as extensions of the body, seamlessly fusing primal elements like water, light, and chlorophyll with conduits such as glass, silicone, and metal. Under distinct aliases, including QT, DD, and HYD, Dunham converges performance, evaporation and new experiential forms of material embodiment to further push the lines of expansiveness and transfiguration.

Recent solo shows include Transmutation, Company Gallery, New York (2022); Burns Blue, Company Gallery, New York (2019); Infinite Lift, Artist Curated Projects, Los Angeles (2021); Inside Darkness There Are No Lines, Times Square Space, New York (2018); and HA: no name no sides :TH at Artspace, Sydney, Australia (2019). Dunham has previously participated in group exhibitions and performances at the Gwangju Biennale; Gwangju, South Korea; MoMA PS1, New York; New Museum, New York; Foundation Louis Vuitton, Paris; The Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin; Andrea Rosen Gallery, New York; Artist Curated Projects, Los Angeles and SIGNAL Gallery, Brooklyn. She was born in 1988, Austin, TX and currently lives and works in New York and Los Angeles.
