Rachel Moore received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Alfred University and her Master of Fine Arts from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where she concentrated on sculpture, design, and curatorial work with a focus on socially and environmentally responsible projects. Whether through larger community or environmental projects, or through sculpture, photography, drawings, and video, Moore explores the complexity of relationships within cultures and subcultures, and within the environment, both built and natural, as affected by human activity. She is a co-founder of Spoke, an exhibition and event space in Chicago (2008-2011), and was a Fulbright Fellow in Greece.
