Theresa Clowes' creative work has explored environmental relationships for over 25+ years. Her abstract landscapes and public installations transform essential data about global warming and our ecological impact into extensive visual articulations. Clowes holds a BFA from Kansas City Art Institute, an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art, and is a professor at Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design. She believes that being an artist does not stray far from being a teacher; they both come from the heart and soul.

Louis Kahn once said, "The nature of space reflects what it wants to be." Clowes' work focuses on the possibility of environmental reciprocity. Rather than dwelling on the ominous dangers, she is inspired by close exchanges that reveal the prospect of equilibrium. Her work incorporates ideas about interconnection and juxtaposition through both material and concept presenting an optimistic visual statement of the potential of living with nature symbiotically.

Theresa Clowes is represented by Walker Fine Art Gallery in Denver, CO, and her most recent public artwork can be seen at 1900 16th Street, Denver, CO. Her work has been exhibited locally at RedLine Arts, Temple Hoyne Buell Theatre, Silverthorne Performing Arts Center, Phillip Steel Gallery, Vertigo Gallery, and nationally in Kansas City, Detroit, Houston, and Portland, Oregon.
