Stewart Uoo studied painting in his native California and then undertook the Meisterschule, at Städelschule in Frankfurt, he is known for his material investigations that speak to pop culture, fashion, sci-fi, and queer culture. Known for his mannikins and hanging barrier sculptures, Uoo also works with photography, creating atmospheric groups of works reminiscent of fashion editorials.
