About Teo

Teo
Teodora Guererra’s abstract artistic vision is influenced by her travels throughout the United States and abroad. While living in Arizona, she became inspired by the naturally radiant landscape and arid climate, which led her to experiment with rich under-painting and vivid colors. Later, the shifting seasons of the East Coast prompted her to pursuance of dripping and textural techniques. Throughout her career, Guererra’s consistent focus has been to push the limits through experimentation with new materials. She is influenced by Pat Steir, Joan Mitchell, Larry Poons, Helen Frankenthaler, and Morris Louis to name a few.
Guererra received her undergraduate and graduate Art degrees from Southern Connecticut University, The College of Saint Rose, and Skidmore College. Guererra’s paintings can be found in public and private collections across the U.S., including the Allmen Health and Wellness Center for Women in New York, SUNY Brockport, and William & Sonoma in San Francisco.
Artist Statement
"My work explores the relationship between texture, color, and the natural world, capturing moments of movement and stillness through layered abstraction. I draw inspiration from the shifting patterns of light, water, and landscapes, using bold strokes and sculptural textures to create depth and dimension. Each piece invites the viewer into a sensory experience, where light and shadow shift across the surface. My most successful work feels both complex and minimal—effortless, as if it just happened."
