"ONE PLANET"
Our 2025 Visual Art juror is Leslie Sobel.
Leslie Sobel is a mixed-media and environmental artist. Based in Michigan, her work reflects her connection to the natural world and her deep concern about climate change. With a background in science and art, she integrates wilderness, scientific field work in remote locations with photography, data and mixed media. Sobel has exhibited widely in more than 30 solo exhibitions and 40 group shows. In addition to her art practice, she has curated exhibitions focused on climate and social justice issues and taught both artists and scientists. The artist residencies that have informed her work include: the University of Michigan’s Bio Station; the Arctic Circle’s exploratory residency aboard the Tall Ship Antigua; the Eclipse Ice Field; the Colorado Art Ranch; and the University of Hartford’s Interdisciplinary MFA residencies.
