Sáandlaanaay, Kimberly Fulton Orozco (b. 1985 Ridgecrest, CA) is an interdisciplinary artist who transforms objects of memory into statements of cultural endurance and self-determination. Her work contends with ideas of belonging and the lasting effects of assimilation.

Rooted in Mexican, Kaigani Haida, and Scottish ancestry, she has developed a body of work deeply attentive to cultural memory and the conditions of disconnection and return. Fulton Orozco is a Kaigani Haida Raven from the Yakhw’ Jaanaas clan, and a citizen of the Central Council of the Tlingit and Haida Indian Tribes of Alaska.

She holds an MFA in Studio Arts from the Institute of American Indian Arts and a BFA from Georgia State University. She is a designer for the United States Mint’s Artistic Infusion Program. As a mother of two, her practice is rigorous, deeply felt, and committed to the generational transmission of what remains possible.
