Cornelius Tulloch U.S.A., b. 1997
Cornelius Tulloch is a Miami-based interdisciplinary artist and architect. His work transcends the boundaries of photography, fine art, and architecture, exploring the importance of cultural identity within built environments and how space shapes culture, which in turn cultivates landscapes.
Tulloch’s work has been shown in institutions such as CUE Art Foundation, New York; Locust Projects; Faena Art Project Room; and the MAXXI, Rome. His work is presented as part of the permanent collection of the Studio Museum in Harlem. Tulloch has won numerous prizes and residencies; including the Emerging Visionary Grant by Instagram and the Brooklyn Museum and 2024 Artist Laureate for the Bakehouse x Cité internationale des Arts residency in Paris, France. Most recently, Tulloch was selected as a 2024 Knight New Works recipient pushing forward his architectural sculpture series Porch Passages. And he was selected as 1 of 10 artists in the 2025 Florida Prize in Contemporary Art exhibition at the Orlando Museum of Art.
As Artistic director of AIRIE (Artist in Residence in the Everglades) he has led projects for “Personal Structures” in Venice Italy, April 2024; and the 2024 Smithsonian Design Triennial at Cooper Hewitt.
Many of Tulloch’s projects have been grounded in his upbringing and communities in Miami, as well as inspired by his Jamaican and African- American heritage. His work expresses the ways in which bodies exist between cultures and borders. Tulloch’s multidisciplinary practice seeks to redefine and reshape the boundaries of art and space.
