Oscar Murillo

Oscar Murillo (b. 1986 in La Paila, Colombia) works across painting, participatory projects, video, sound, and installation, examining ideas of collectivity and shared culture while foregrounding material presence and a critical perspective on contemporary society. His large-scale participatory commission The flooded garden, inspired by Claude Monet’s pond in Giverny, was presented in the Turbine Hall at Tate Modern in summer 2024; in 2023 he received an honorary doctorate from the University of Westminster, and in 2019 he was one of four recipients of the Turner Prize.
