Presence as Art.

Sanctuary is a series of 90-second moving portraits, born from a search for stillness amid a world unraveling.

Each film captures a quiet moment—someone immersed in breath, art, movement, or ritual. These glimpses become portals, reminding us that beauty and presence still exist, even in the midst of chaos.

Though not tied to religion, Sanctuary honors the sacred found in ordinary life. It invites a simple act: to witness, to slow down, to reconnect.

My vision for Sanctuary is as expansive as the concept of presence itself. I imagine the portraits flickering across Times Square, glowing on museum walls, or playing in unexpected public spaces—a gentle pause that leaves each viewer wondering:

Where is my sanctuary?
And how often do I go there?
