وُلد عام 1971 في الرياض بالمملكة العربية السعودية. يُقيم ويعمل في الرياض.
تشمل ممارسات الفنان سلطان بن فهد، ذات الطابع المفاهيمي، الرسم والتصوير والنحت والتركيب الفني. يستكشف عمله التعبيرات المرتبطة بالإسلام والهوية السعودية والتاريخ والسرديات الوطنية من خلال الاهتمام بمنتجات الثقافة المادية الاستثنائية في وطنه. يهدف بن فهد إلى ربط الماضي بالحاضر من خلال جمع وإعادة ترتيب الأغراض المنزلية المنتقاة، بما في ذلك القوارير وسجادات الصلاة ووحدات تكييف الهواء والثريات. غالبًا ما تتضمن أعماله تعريض الأشياء إلى تحولات من خلال عملية التجميع وإعادة الترتيب، لتكشف عن معانٍ لا يمكن لها أن تتجلى سوى بمنطق الاختيار ولغة التعدد. تُصبح الأغراض الجاهزة التي يستخدمها في عمله أشياء تذكيرية يمكنها، إذا وُجدت في اللحظة المعاصرة، إلقاء الضوء على الذكريات الثقافية الكامنة.
