BIO | CV

With a practice that integrates sculpture, moving image, performance and painting, Sydney-based artist Todd Fuller is, at his core, a draughtsman. Underpinning all aspects of his practice is a commitment to drawing as a democratic medium that connects, engages and delights audiences.

For more than a fifteen years, Fuller has been developing hand-drawn animations that explore love and loss, alongside ideas of place, identity and community. These often narrative works are grounded in lived experience and developed through engagement with different communities, sites and histories, including an increasing thread of queer histories and speculative storytelling that reconsiders overlooked or fragmented narratives. His award-winning practice has been shaped through residencies at Bundanon Trust, Hill End, Grafton Regional Art Gallery, the Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris, the British School at Rome, and the NG Creative Residency in Provence.

A graduate of Sydney’s National Art School, Fuller has exhibited widely across Australia and internationally. He was a finalist in the Sir John Sulman and Dobell Prizes, won the 2018 Jacaranda Acquisitive Drawing Award, and was awarded the 2024 Sunshine Coast National Art Prize. His work is held in public and private collections including Parliament House Art Collection, Artbank, Sydney Harbour Federation Trust, State Library of New South Wales, Museum of Brisbane, Sydney Museum and numerous regional galleries. He has exhibited in the United States, Italy, France, South Korea, Bangladesh, England, Singapore and Malta.

Fuller’s practice also extends into curatorship and arts production, with roles across Waverley Council, the Biennale of Sydney, Sculpture in the Vineyards and dLux Media Arts. His curatorial work often reflects the same concerns as his studio practice, particularly drawing, storytelling and contemporary approaches to visual narrative.
