In 2006, Patrick Stull debuted his first exhibit entitled “Six Jewish Girls” at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco. The project explored the Jewish identity of Stull’s daughter and her five best friends and featured 100 larger-than-life photos and a 24-minute narration with music. In 2012, Stull held his second exhibit, “Evolve… A Woman’s Journey,” at the Fort Mason Exhibition Center in San Francisco. The multimedia exhibit chronicles the pregnancy experience of 30 women through photography, sculptures, paintings, and a graphite-drawing collage. The work was captured between 2007 and 2011. The collection was also the subject for Stull’s first book, also entitled Evolve… A Woman’s Journey.

The 2019 coffee table book Encounter: Moments of Inspiration features a collection of Stull’s artistic photos, paintings, and composites of women and men in various poses and forms.
