BEING is an ongoing motion portrait series featuring people from all walks of life.

"I like to think that I don't have a specific lane. Sometimes I'll just write random poems that don't make any sense. Walking down the street - vendor lights a fire - rice boiling." - Ana Pyrna

Miriam Brellenthin

“I don't really know my purpose in this world, but I think it has something to do with my optimism. For some reason I am able to make others see the light in each situation. Where does that energy come from? I'm not entirely sure."

Kane Mode

“What gets me excited these days? New experiences. To be fair, I'm a very excitable person. My friends sometimes say they need a massive butterfly net to reel me in.”

Adi

"Cinema. It's like you're watching life but it's not necessarily real. It has the power to evoke an emotional reaction to something that's literally just projected on a screen. That blows my mind. To me, it’s the white canvas that you can put anything on. The holy grail."

Hailey Poole

"Music is everything to me. I still remember my brother bought our first rock CD more than 20 years ago. Hearing that level of energy just blew my mind. It was the first time I fell in love."
