Clare Koury

CLARE KOURY (Kentucky, 1993) is an artist, educator and writer whose research explores natural phenomena, material transformation, and the construction of history. She received a Masters of Arts from Columbia University, and a Bachelors Degree from University of Chicago. Her approach draws from a wide range of interdisciplinary sources, blending material inquiry with metaphysical exploration, to better understand the invisible forces that influence human behavior. Her work endeavors to illuminate universal patterns—magnetic, solar, and sonic forces that bind the cosmos and life on Earth.

Currently based in New York City, she teaches at UConn and has exhibited at institutions including Snow Gallery, The Emily Harvey Foundation, Randy Alexander Gallery, the Fall River Museum of Contemporary Art, Canary Test, The Jewish Museum and Produce Model. She was the 2021 Windgate fellow and resident at Josephine Sculpture Park in Frankfort, Kentucky and is the recipient of the Windgate Fellowship at Purchase College for Spring 2025.
