2026 Spotlight Exhibition Series featuring Curtis Anthony Bozif and Siri Stensberg

Curated by Shane McAdams

Designed to provide career development and experience for emerging visual artists, the Spotlight Exhibition Series shares concept-driven, concurrent solo exhibitions by multiple artists: each showing a complete body of work. In 2026, Curtis Anthony Bozif and Siri Stensberg exhibit alongside one another; creating a dialogue between their interdisciplinary practices. This marks the final installment of this series.

Day’s End by Curtis Anthony Bozif

“It has become common on summer evenings for the sun, as it makes its way to meet the horizon, to be filtered through a thick, toxic atmospheric haze of smoke and particulate ash from wildfires burning in Canada and the American West, coloring the skies of the upper Midwest gold, orange, and crimson. The Vespers paintings take place within this light, which stirs in me a mix of awe and foreboding, a sense of imminence and inertia, and a kind of contemplation at a day’s end that comes close to prayer.”

Constellations from Unspoken Sentences by Siri Stensberg

"Constellations from Unspoken Sentences is a collection of mixed media sculptural arrangements. Each series is spurred from passing moments: light flickering through window blinds, leaves twisting in the wind, ice floating down a winter rive. I use inventive processes such as wire-forming, sewing, painting, slicing, and weaving to transform simple materials into new, dynamic forms. After their creation, I arrange the modular elements into emotive rhythms that travel through space. The series invites playful exploration and imagination.”
