UVA (United Visual Artists) is a London-based practice founded in 2003 by British artist Matt Clark. The studio’s diverse body of work integrates new technologies with traditional media, such as sculpture, performance and site-specific installation.

Drawing from sources ranging from ancient philosophy to theoretical science, the practice explores the cultural frameworks and natural phenomena that shape our cognition, creating instruments that manipulate our perception and expose the relativity of our experiences. Rather than material objects, UVA’s works are better understood as events in time, in which the performance of light, sound and movement unfolds.
UVA has been commissioned internationally by institutions including the Barbican Curve Gallery, London; Manchester International Festival; Royal Academy of Arts; Serpentine Gallery, London; The Wellcome Trust; Victoria & Albert Museum; YCAM, Tokyo, Japan and the Biennale of Sydney.

The studio’s work is collected by the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain, France and MONA, Australia. UVA has staged solo shows at Bitforms Gallery and has been selected for several group exhibitions including at Blain|Southern and Riflemaker galleries, London; Bryce Wolkowitz, New York; Seoul Museum of Art, Seoul, Korea; Power Station of Art, Shanghai, China, 180 Strand, London and NXT Museum, Amsterdam. Permanent public works are sited internationally in Toronto, Dubai, Philadelphia and London.
