About Teresa Roche: Teresa Roche, a native of Greenville, SC, is a mixed media artist working in acrylic, watercolor, and collage. She received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Dance form Columbia College, Columbia, SC. With a background in dance, event management, and stage production, she approaches each fresh surface as a choreographer orchestrating a dance- beginning. With a blank stage and the pieces and parts in place, gestural movements are tweaked and changed until the work is complete. In building layers of paint and then scratching and sanding back into it, Roche's mixed media works are excavations of sorts- an unearthing of the past, which is then transformed into a new, abstracted story.
