In Relative Truths, faculty from the University of Utah’s Department of Art & Art History present new works that consider human relationships to truth and fiction, the boundaries between physical and virtual space, and the shifting complexities of contemporary life.

Spanning photography, painting, sculpture, installation, printmaking, and digital media, the exhibition reveals the breadth of artistic inquiry among these Utah-based but globally connected artists. Their works grapple with themes of isolation, contested histories, cultural anxiety, dismantled human rights, and resilience of the creative mind. Some embrace the uncertainty of an AI-mediated, post-pandemic world; others resist it through craft, material play, and critical reflection.

Curated by Peter Hay, Associate Director of PROArtes México, Relative Truths features artists including Edward Bateman, Pamela Beach, Henry Becker, Al Denyer, Lindsay Frei, Beth Krensky, Kevin Perry, Maureen O’Hara Ure, and Jaclyn Wright, among many others.

Presented concurrently with salt 17: Adama Delphine Fawundu, the exhibition invites audiences to contemplate how art both mirrors and challenges the technologies, environments, and social systems that define our present moment.
