Kerry Baldry, a multi-disciplinary artist, works in a range of media including film and video, painting and sculpture. She studied B. A. Hons Fine Art at Middlesex University and then went on to study Film and Video (Post Graduate Diploma) at Central St. Martins.

Her most recent works, a series of paintings which are included in seen[un}seen exhibition at Both Gallery in September have been inspired by nature, the landscape around her studio on a nature reserve in Snowdonia in North Wales 

Rooted in abstraction, Kerry Baldry’s paintings emerge through a process of layering and fragmentation, suggesting psychological or emotional states through shifting colours, expressive marks, and textured surfaces. Baldry’s practice is informed by the dramatic landscape of Nantlle, North Wales. This environment influences not only the visual language of her work but also its emotional and reflective depth. Through a process of layering, removing, and reworking paint, she navigates the tension between control and spontaneity. Her use of colour, texture, and expressive mark-making brings attention to the physical qualities of painting, while leaving room for unpredictability and change. In a cycle of construction and erasure, each work evolves organically, echoing the unpredictability of both the natural world and the inner self.

Baldry is known for her film and video pieces which have been screened at international film festivals and galleries, online and on TV including BBC2’ s The Late Show, the I.C.A., The Lux, The Rotterdam Film Festival, FACT Liverpool. Brussels Art week and The Venice Biennale to name a few places. 

Her sculpture work was  purchased for the David Roberts Art Foundation and she was selected for REDboard artists work on billboards a Hull City of Culture 2017 project. 

Over the last 15 years she has also been compiling and organising screenings of artists moving image titled One Minute. (Volumes 1 - 12) An eclectic mix of work made within the duration of one mInute by artists at varying stages of their careers.
