- ABOUT -
David Hanley, known professionally as DaHexd, is a visual artist who sells paintings on a global scale and performs internationally. Specialising in creative visual art, his works serve as introspective reflections of his mental states, interwoven with societal observations, all rendered in his unique abstract style. Using painting, creative technology and EEG as a medium, DaHexd explores his personal experiences and envisions dystopian futures, creating art that deeply examines mental health and its effects on daily life.
DaHexd's artistic journey is characterised by his relentless exploration of the human condition. His thought-provoking and emotionally charged pieces delve deeply into the human psyche, embodying themes of mental conflict, societal pressures, and personal growth. Throughout his career, DaHexd has released multiple art collections, each confronting neurotic themes in expressive, impactful ways.
In addition to his visual work, DaHexd is integrating cutting-edge technology into his creative process by linking his art to EEG data. In a groundbreaking documentary released in early 2024, he explained his innovative method of scanning his brain while creating art, generating projection-mapped environments that visually represent his brain activity. Inspired by pareidolia, these projections fuel new works, exploring how brain data can influence the creation and experience of art, offering a pioneering fusion of neuroscience and artistic expression.
