"Teresa Moorehouse creates narrative bas reliefs that are as beautiful as they are intriguing. Her pieces . . .speak of cosmic forces and the indomitable power of artistic expression intalented hands." —B. Harris, Metropolitan Museum of Art

Teresa Moorehouse's "narrative sculptures" tell deep, often timeless stories in cold cast bronze, with patinas of copper, silver, or gold. Some draw on traditional myths or legends.  Others discover new voices for contemporary experience of spiritual mysteries. Her images weave a language of symbols that surpasses logic and speaks directly to intuition and spirit. 

Soul Stories elegantly displays thirty-nine of the artist's favorite works in cold cast bronze. Her own brief narratives companion the photographs, to lead us by the hand into each sculpture's magical world.

Until settling down recently in Chicago, Teresa Moorehouse was a traveling sculptor and storyteller who exhibited regularly at festivals for the arts in major cities throughout the USA.

Teresa first gained attention in the late 1960s for her work with welded steel. She began to work with cold cast bronze in 1985 and still creates new works in that medium. Many of her works have been commissioned by private individuals, businesses, libraries, schools, colleges, universities, and museums throughout the United States.
