Artist, designer, and researcher exploring how we shape the world around us.

About Me

I am Euladora Winter Rose—Eula for short. I am an artist, designer, and researcher based in Minnesota. My work spans visual art, architecture, environmental observation, and community engagement. Growing up between the Quad Cities and Minneapolis, I formed a strong connection to both the built environment and the natural landscape. These interests continue to shape my approach to my work.

My practice includes painting, drawing, sculpture, mixed media, installation, and architectural design. I am particularly interested in how observation can lead to inquiry. I explore how people experience spaces, how environments influence behavior, and how art and design can make those relationships visible. Much of my work starts with research, drawing, material experimentation, and a close look at the systems surrounding a subject.

I am currently a full-time PSEO student at the University of Minnesota while also taking advanced courses in art and design. My architectural education includes studies at the Boston Architectural College, the ACE Mentor Program of Minneapolis, and RISD Pre-College, where I was a Balfour Scholar in architecture. These experiences have deepened my technical understanding of design and my interest in architecture as a field that connects artistic expression with human experience, environmental responsibility, and real-world constraints.

In addition to my studio practice, I work on projects that take art and design beyond the gallery. Project Aster, my ongoing agricultural research project in southwestern Minnesota, looks at small-scale manual agriculture, land, labor, and environmental resilience. Through the Atlas Cultural Foundation in Morocco, I developed an art curriculum and instructional materials for children in the High Atlas Mountains. These projects have strengthened my interest in work that starts with careful observation but ultimately engages with people, place, and larger systems.

My artwork has been exhibited in juried, public, and gallery shows across the United States, including a three-month solo exhibition through the City of Golden Valley’s Rotational Arts Program. My work has also been featured in national and international art publications. Through these various projects, I keep returning to the same questions: how do we experience the environments around us, what gives a place or object meaning, and how can art and design create deeper connections between people and the world they inhabit?

As I prepare to study architecture and fine art at the undergraduate level, I want to continue working across disciplines instead of treating them as separate fields. I see art, architecture, research, and environmental study as different ways to investigate the same thing: how we perceive, shape, and participate in the world around us.

Music

Here’s what I’ve had on repeat this month — my top Spotify tracks from the past 30 days. These songs shape the atmosphere I work and dream in, the quiet soundtrack behind everything I’m sketching, planning, and imagining next. Hit play to step into the rhythm of my upcoming world.

My Cat

Saturn has been with me for several years, and her calm, curious nature always makes me appreciate the smaller details in daily life. That same appreciation for detail shapes how I approach design and creative projects.

Creating

Art has always been one of my strongest forms of expression. From early art camps in the Quad Cities to experimenting with clay, drawing, and design, I’ve learned how creating can connect personal meaning with broader ideas. This exploration of form, material, and imagination continues to influence the way I approach architecture.

Hiking

In August 2024, my mom and I climbed Mt. Fuji during a trip to Japan. Reaching the summit was both challenging and rewarding, and it gave me a new perspective on how landscapes and natural environments shape human experience. Adventures like this inspire me to think about how architecture can connect people to place.

Family

I have a half-sister who is 9 years old and lives in Wisconsin. Even though we don’t see each other often, her curiosity and kindness remind me of the importance of designing spaces that feel welcoming and supportive for people of all ages.

Friends

At Benilde-St. Margaret’s, I’ve been fortunate to make friends who are supportive, creative, and encouraging. These relationships remind me that collaboration is at the heart of meaningful work—including architecture, where ideas grow stronger through teamwork and shared perspectives.

Evie, Rose, and Nova—bring a lot of energy and joy into my life. Living with them has taught me about the rhythms of shared spaces and the balance between comfort, play, and structure—lessons that translate into how I think about creating environments for both people and animals.
