J Balvin
Coachella 2024
In 2024, I had the pleasure of working with The Squared Division and ChaseLights Studio to design this sleek, retrofuturist spaceship along with a sweeping, eliptical landing pad and massive, inflatible alien for J Balvin’s extraterrestrial rave on the mainstage at Coachella. My design process began with pencil, paper, and a bit of modeling clay before moving into 3D, where we refined until we could no longer see straight. Well worth it though. J Balvin absolutely dominated on this stage. To top it all off, the inimitable Will Smith made a special appearance, performing his classic “Men in Black.”
