uckiood

Seattle, WA

"Original and distinctive sculpture for children and the child at heart!"
Founded in 2011, uckiood is the studio of Swedish-American and British artists, Kim Rask and Missy Douglas. Missy is a former tutor of art history and fine art, holding a B.A. (Hons), M.A. and Ph.D in History of Art from the University of Cambridge, UK. Kim is an alumnus of the University of Washington with a background in animation, sound and design.

With initial bases in Brussels, Belgium and New York City, they immediately made a profound impact with their striking, bold - and often divisive - portfolio. They now work out of their Seattle studio, creating mixed-media sculpture and installations. Their current work utilizes the visual language of childhood to explore the concept of outsiderness/otherness.

They have exhibited across the US and Europe in both solo and group shows and their work has been selected for long-term and permanent public art placement. They have secured a wide range of festival and large event contracts, and have worked with government bodies, non-profit organisations and prominent corporate clients such as Facebook and Amazon.

Their award-nominated work is held in high-profile, private and corporate collections across the world, and has been featured in major news and culture/lifestyle publications such as BBC World News & Radio, The Independent (UK), Vogue (NL), designboom, My Modern Met, Psychology Today, Shanghai Daily, The Stranger, and Athens Voice, as well as being the subject of a 2018 webMD documentary and a 2021 Shine News podcast.
