Syjuco's artwork explores the friction between the authentic and the counterfeit, addressing political concerns regarding issues of labor and economies within the capitalist system.[3] In 2009 she created Copystand: An autonomous manufacturing zone for the Frieze Art Fair in London. The Wall Street Journal notes: "Other artists, meanwhile, are openly toying with the fair's changing economics... San Francisco-based artist Stephanie Syjuco and several of her artist friends are making copycat versions of their favorite fair pieces, which she is selling at "heavily discounted" prices ranging from roughly $30 to $750."[4]

She is an assistant professor at the University of California, Berkeley.[5] She is represented by Catharine Clark Gallery in San Francisco. Her work is in the collection of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art,[6] Di rosa,[7] and the Whitney Museum of American Art.[8] She is the recipient of a 2014 Guggenheim Fellowship in Visual Arts[9] and a 2009 Joan Mitchell Foundation Painters and Sculptors Program grant.[10] In 2018, she was featured in the San Francisco Bay Area episode of PBS's Art21: Art in the 21st Century.[11]

In September 2019 Syjuco opened a large solo exhibition titled Rogue States at the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis.[12][13]
