Her practice-led research spans art writing, fiction, performance, and theory, with works translated into 12 languages and commissioned by institutions like Artangel, BBC Radio 4, and Creative Time. Key projects include the opera-film History of the Present (2023, with Margaret Salmon) exploring Belfast's peace-line legacies, and the essay collection Who does not envy with us is against us (2023). She previously held roles at Northumbria University, University of Edinburgh, and Goldsmiths, and has visiting appointments at Hochschule für Gestaltung (Frankfurt) and University of Cambridge. Fusco's research focuses on dialect in critical writing, fiction as critique, and performative methodologies.

Awards include the AHRC Medical Humanities Award (2020) and European Media Art Festival Prize (2024). She supervises PhD students in experimental writing forms and sits on editorial boards for Brill's Research | Art | Writing series and the British Art Network.
