Research Emphasis: Tulloch’s work interrogates the intersection of religious practice and material culture. She examines how ancient artifacts (e.g., funerary monuments) reflect societal beliefs, while her contemporary projects analyze public art’s role in modern spiritual expression. Current interests include origin myths’ material manifestations and collaborative artistic practices.
Exhibitions & Collaborations: Notable projects include the 2020 Threads & Ties / Au fil des siècles exhibition with Lise Perras, set to tour Quebec’s Obadjiwan–Fort Témiscamingue National Historic Site. Her Book Arts Lab research merges tactile craftsmanship with mythological storytelling.
