Artist Bio
Michael Stewart is an NYC-based photographer and video producer originally from Brockton, Massachusetts.
Michael’s portfolio shows an artist trying to slow the world down from its dizzying pace. Through photos he is able to tame the loud and bustling urban scenery which is featured in his work into quiet and thoughtful moments of stillness. He strives to express our collective and hurried attempts at establishing intimacy with unfamiliar figures and locales.
Michael has a degree in Media for Global Citizenship and a Certificate in Film Studies from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Michael presented his work in two solo shows in Boston, “fish people” in 2018 and “TPE: MJStew in Taipei” in 2019.
Stewart won Best Documentary and Best Experimental Film at the 2010 and 2012 UMass Amherst Film Festival respectively.
