Taylor Edelle Stuart is a film director, video artist, and theatre maker.

Across her work, she investigates the spaces between who we are, who we perform, and how contemporary media scripts those performances. Through moving images, live performance, and installation, she explores questions of identity, memory, desire, and spectatorship, often employing dream logic, the uncanny, and fractured narrative structures to challenge fixed notions of reality and narrative authority.

She recently completed You Really Like Me! her debut short as a writer-director, and directed the web series Boy Shorts, created by actress and producer Molly Brown.

As a video artist and projection designer, her work focuses on the interplay between digital media and physical bodies and spaces, exploring both harmony and tension between theatrical and cinematic modes. Her work has been presented at MoMA PS1, the Perelman Performing Arts Center, Ars Nova, La MaMa, and La Jolla Playhouse, among many others. She co-designed the world premiere of the musical The Outsiders alongside Tal Yarden.

As an associate video and projection designer her work has been seen with American Ballet Theatre, Lincoln Center Theater, New York Theatre Workshop, and on Broadway stages in productions such as Floyd Collins (designed by Ruey Horng Sun) and Water for Elephants (designed by David Bengali), both of which were nominated for the Tony.

Most recently, she was associate video designer to Tal Yarden on Oedipus on Broadway (winner of the Drama Desk award for outstanding video and projection design) starring Mark Strong and Lesley Manville adapted and directed by Robert Icke, which recently transferred to the Residenztheater in Munich. For the Munich production, she directed the opening film.

Taylor was recently a Seminar Fellow at the 2026 Oberhausen Film Festival.
