Stage Design and Visual Direction for Janelle Monáe’s 2019 Grammys performance.

The set elements, lighting design, and camera direction were designed to fit the criterion of a live TV performance as well as the demands of a transformable music awards show stage.


Syfy, futuristic themes drawn from Monae’s studio album Dirty Computer, nominated for album of the year, inspired the set design and creative direction.
