The University Art Galleries invites emerging, mid-career, and established artists to submit work for Atmospheric Thinking, a juried exhibition examining contemporary interpretations of the sky as subject, medium, and metaphor. Across disciplines, the sky has served as a site of scientific observation, spiritual imagination, environmental urgency, and aesthetic inquiry. In the context of a rapidly changing atmosphere—meteorological, political, and digital—this exhibition invites artists to interrogate, disrupt, and reimagine the sky beyond its traditional role as a background or horizon.
