Steele Stewart is an MFA student in the Illustration & Visual Culture program at the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts. Having graduated from USC’s Film & Television BA program, he seeks to integrate his cinematic background and illustration practice to create experimental, yet narratively driven multimedia art. As someone who believes in the foundational power of a culture’s myths to either reinforce or challenge the status quo, Steele aims to tell morally complex stories that reject division and instead champion empathy and understanding.
