Teresa Albor is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice spans painting, sculpture, live art, performance, video, sound, installations, and community-led social/design projects. Her work focuses on themes of migration, community participation, cultural identity, and sustainable, circular fashion. Alongside her practice she has run non-profit organisations, been an investigative journalist and editor, and worked pro bono for many organisations providing services in communities ranging from food pantries to the magistry.

​

Live Art and Performance: She creates durational and site-specific performances—often exploring displacement, vulnerability, and human stories—such as Naked Life (with Dagmara Bilon), performance pieces framed within Tanja Ostojić’s Misplaced Women? project, and conceptual performances like 100 Paintings in 24 Hours (where all paintings are given away). She is a founding member of GraceGraceGrace, a collective that performs gender and ageing.

​

Installations & Artifact-Based Projects: She uses physical objects and community dialogue to address social justice issues. For example, The Things We Leave Behind (with Laís Pontes) utilised personal items left behind by refugees in Lesvos and Serbian camps to spark conversations with students and communities in the UK and Kabul. 

​

Collaborative & Social Practice (Rufus Stone): As part of Rufus Stone, an artist-led residency programme, she and fellow artist Adam Brooks collaborated with "non-artists," introducing them to performance, sound, and installation to rethink what art means in everyday life. She has also completed residencies exploring complex human topics, such as her installation Unconditional at King’s College London based on conversations with opiate users and researchers. 

​

Responsible & Circular Fashion Design: She merges artistic practice with environmental and social activism. She coordinates Re/DRESS, a non-profit circular fashion brand producing clothing from 100% recycled post-industrial textile waste and plastic bottles in Bangladesh, the UK, and Qatar. She has also worked on interactive cultural projects like Cut from the same cloth, examining the cultural significance and modern redesign of garments like the abaya. 

​

Low-Cost Architecture / Shelter Design: She collaborates on humanitarian design initiatives, such as low-cost modular shelter projects with architect Marina Tabassum (Khudi Bari) in Bangladesh.
