Val Henderson. 26. Creative Director & Producer.

B.S. Mechanical Engineering, Johns Hopkins University (2021).

My degree taught me the fundamentals of how things are made. I have an appreciation for complex systems and problem solving within them. But more importantly, my degree taught me that when you put your head down and follow the rules, you can end up creating things you never intended: institutions reward obedience, even if it leads to destruction.

What happens if we question that authority and make our own path?

My work sits at the intersection of logic and intuition - taking abstract concepts and shaping them into lived reality.

I'm drawn to big truths, ones that hold through time and perception. I’ve found that experimenting across mediums is essential to directing anything well — you have to know how it feels in your hands first.

todayfeltlike is a documentation of my evolving perspective, a space to confront, reflect, and make meaning as I go.

We all have the ability to change our circumstances. This is what mine looks like and I am excited to collaborate with other aligned individuals.
