Brandon Stuart is an interdisciplinary artist, technologist, and social entrepreneur. He engages with the realm of A.r.t. in everyday life as “A random thought”, the embodiment of curiosity and self-expression emerging from the depths of the mind as it continuously works to process lived experiences. His knowledge and talent as a multi-hyphenate continues to grow through communing with motley crews of fellow artists from different styles and modalities.
As a "storysharer", Brandon strives to honor and craft narratives that encourage greater sociocultural awareness and the advancement of social and economic justice in communities around the city of Detroit. His passion for community-based arts, culture, and advocacy work has contributed to the genesis of ICONICLASS.
In 2020, he was awarded grant funding in the amount of $20,000 to design and lead a creative voting rights project called “Float The Vote”. The project culminated with “Float The Vote: Tell Your Story”, a short documentary film highlighting the team’s efforts, becoming an official selection of the 2021 PopDoc Awards, the 2021 Detroit Black Film Festival, and the 2021 Better Cities Film Festival. As one of eleven Unstoppable Voters Projects supported by the Center for Artistic Activism (C4AA), this experience marked the start of his professional journey designing creative projects for social change.
A native and current resident of Detroit, Brandon holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Behavioral Biology and East Asian Studies from Johns Hopkins University and a Master of Liberal Arts degree for intellectual freedom from the University of Chicago.
