Jordan Corine Cruz

Jordan Corine Cruz is an interdisciplinary artist and educator working across installation, sculpture, photography, and performance. Inspired by the endurance of ancestral belief systems, her works examine nostalgia as a mechanism of comfort, resistance, and liberation through the perspective of diasporic Puerto Rican identity.

Cruz holds a BFA in Photography and an MFA in Photography, Video, and Related Media from the School of Visual Arts. Her work has been most notably shown at Haul Gallery, BronxArtSpace, SoMad Gallery, PHOTOVILLE, and La Mama Galleria. Cruz is a 2024 AIM Fellow at the Bronx Museum of the Arts and was the 2020 recipient of the BRIO award, presented by the Bronx Council on the Arts. In 2019, she organized and hosted a panel talk at SVA focusing on Latinx Women Photographers in collaboration with El Museo del Barrio. Cruz lives and works in The Bronx, New York.
