Voices in Form

Group exhibition 

Voices in Form – Personal, political, or social narratives expressed through sculpture. 

Submission Deadline: Monday, June 1, 2026, 11:59pm

Exhibition Dates: October 1 – November 12, 2026


About the Exhibit:

The Indiana University Kokomo Art Gallery will host a special juried exhibition, Voices in Form, which features work by artist members of the Chicago Sculpture International group.  CSI artists are invited to submit work for consideration for the upcoming exhibition, Voices in Form – Works from Chicago Sculpture International. The exhibition will be on display in the IUK Art Gallery, on the Indiana University Kokomo campus of Kokomo, Indiana. 

      Voices in Form invites sculptors to explore how three-dimensional works can carry, amplify, and embody personal, political, and social narratives. This exhibition seeks sculpture that functions as a form of visual language—expressing lived experience, cultural memory, identity, resistance, or reflection through material, process, and form. Artists are encouraged to consider how their work “speaks” in space, whether through symbolic imagery, abstract gesture, or the physical presence of the object itself. Submissions may address contemporary issues, historical perspectives, or deeply personal stories that resonate beyond the individual. All sculptural approaches and materials are welcome, including traditional, experimental, and mixed-media works. Voices in Form aims to create a compelling dialogue between diverse sculptural voices and the communities they engage. 

2-D and 3-D work will be considered. Wall hung work must be ready to hang with a strong wire or hanging cleat, or appropriate hanging device. Artworks can be displayed on the wall, floor, or pedestals.

Carrie Baxter, Art Gallery Director, and the IUK Art and NMAT Faculty will serve as the jurors.
