Bio
Eszter Sziksz is a Hungarian-born, Hungarian-American interdisciplinary artist whose practice spans experimental printmaking, installation, sculpture, and video. Exploring memory, presence, human connection, and impermanence, she challenges conventional understandings of the print as a fixed image. Through ephemeral materials, sensory experiences, and site-specific installations, her work investigates how images emerge, transform, and disappear, and how traces can evoke what is no longer physically present.
Sziksz received a Fulbright award in 2026 for research in Hungary. Her recent exhibitions include Seeking, I Don’t Know What I’m Looking For (And I Hope I Never Find It), her first solo museum exhibition at the Sarasota Art Museum, and Skyway 2024: A Contemporary Collaboration at the same institution. Her work has also been exhibited at the International Print Triennial in Poland, the Boston Printmakers North American Print Biennial, and the Castellani Art Museum in Human/Nature: Envisioning the Environment (2026–27).
Her honors include the Halo Arts Project Fellowship (2026), a Foundation for Contemporary Arts Emergency Grant (2024), the Puffin Foundation Grant (2023), and the Prix de Print Award from Art in Print magazine, which featured her work on its cover.
She holds an MFA from Memphis College of Art and a Doctorate in Liberal Arts (DLA) from the University of Pécs, Hungary. She is a full-time Fine Arts/Printmaking faculty member at Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota, Florida.
