Coral Saucedo Lomeli (b. Mexico City, Mexico) is a multidisciplinary artist who lives and works in Brooklyn NY. Her work explores material relationships, labor, and collapsing systems, drawing inspiration from domestic objects, the urban landscape, poetry, and craft. Through her practice, she recontextualizes overlooked objects and processes into poetic moments. She completed her MFA at Yale University and BFA at ArtCenter College of Design. She has done residencies at Yaddo, New York; The Bronx Museum AIM Fellowship, New York; The NARS Foundation, New York; RUINA, Oaxaca, Mexico; The Lighthouse Works, New York; SOMA, Mexico City; at a construction site in San Borja #928, Mexico City, among others.
Her work has been included at the National Academy of Design, New York City, and in the Sixth AIM Biennial at the Bronx Museum. It has also been exhibited at Proyecto Pícaro, Mexico City; Space Ten Gallery and Nan Rae Gallery, Los Angeles; the Hooverness Glass House, Fishers Island, NY; NYLAAT House, Governors Island, NY; NARS Foundation, NY; and De Meldkamer, Maastricht, NL, among others.
She was awarded the Rema Hort Mann Foundation Emerging Artist grant, the Provost Grant, the San Marino Art League Scholarship, and a Fonca/Conacyt Grant, which made possible her studies at Yale University.
She currently teaches in the Fine Arts department of Parsons School of Design, where she sees the classroom as a generative site for dialogue, experimentation, and critical inquiry.
