Derrick Cruz

I work at the intersection of storytelling, craftsmanship, and myth. I forge objects and experiences, nurturing their impact through both modern and primitive means to spark a sense of wonder and context in those who engage with my work.

I have received several international honors and exhibited at the Museum of Arts and Design in New York and the Santa Monica Museum of Art, among others. My work has been featured in The New York Times, Artforum, Forbes, the Financial Times, V, W, Rolling Stone, and more.

Born in Brooklyn and raised in Puerto Rico, I currently live in Philadelphia.
