ABSTRACT ART WITH NEW MEDIA exhibition artist | SIRI STENSBERG
My video work examines transitory motions that are multiplied, looped, and fragmented. Vivid colors and abstract forms fracture the linear motion across the screen. The audio is collected from mundane spaces and layered into vibrating harmonies that escape resolution. The clicks of altered audio tracks reveal the sutured nature of their construction. With these layered spaces, I seek to create poetic moments where viewers can submerge themselves in eerie wonder.
Siri Stensberg grew up in Appleton, WI and received her BFA from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. Born into a musical family, Siri pursued dual paths in classical music and visual art. While in Eau Claire she balanced orchestra and chamber music performances while developing a language in abstract painting. Siri completed her MFA at Washington State University in Pullman, Washington. Her practice is increasingly experimental; her interest in the intersection of images, sound, and time led her to video work and installation. She is currently based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
