Hady Barry is a Guinean-American artist whose practice involves photography and sound. She is interested in the weight of memory, the ties that bind us, and the construction of identity. Her approach is contemplative and introspective. 

In 2022 she was a finalist of the Vantage Point Sharjah Award, a Juror’s Pick for the LensCulture Black and White Photography Awards, and received an Honorable Mention for her submission to the Hariban Award. Her work has been written about by the British Journal of Photography, NAATAL, and Contemporary And. It has been exhibited in the United Kingdom by the National Portrait Gallery and in the UAE by the Sharjah Art Foundation. 

Hady lives and works between Leesburg, VA (USA) and Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire). She is a member of African Women in Photography, Diversify Photo’s Up Next, and Native Agency. She holds degrees from Georgetown University (B.S. in Economics with a Certificate in African Studies.) and UC Berkeley-Haas (M.B.A.).
