Delyth Barlow

Delyth Barlow is a Sheffield-based mixed media artist, who focuses on sculpture and installation; however, she also branches into painting, illustration, and photography. Her work explores the relationship between art, science, and life by taking a critical view on health, society, and history, and questioning the world around her. Her current work investigates the nature of medicine, by looking at the roles of comfort and care in medicine and exploring side effects - not just the ones listed on the packaging! In this work she hopes to help break down the stigma and taboo that often surrounds taking medication and encourage healthy open discussion about medication and health issues. Delyth Barlow recently exhibited her work at the Millennium gallery as part of the group exhibition, Unoccupied (2022). She was also part of Sheffield Hallam’s Inter exhibition (2022), as well as being part of two digital exhibitions during lockdown, Turbulent Times (2021) by BLOC and Living in Crisis (2021), an independent group exhibition she helped create.
