Maria Fee, PhD

Dr. Maria Fee is an artist, theologian, and educator. Her visual art explores ideas of fragmentation, metizaje (cultural mixing), alienation, and hospitality. These notions also drive her theological research currently explored in Beauty Is a Basic Service: Theology and Hospitality in the Work of Theaster Gates, Fortress Press. As an adjunct seminary professor, Dr. Fee has applied art-based methodologies to theological courses such as The Visual Arts and the Christian, Word and Sacrament, and Capstone Thesis Theology and Art. Maria holds an MFA in Painting, M.A. in Theological Studies, and a PhD in Theology and Culture.
