“Make me look like a music video.” Was the ask I got from Nicky of Mana Aura, who asked me to film her performing within Rebecca Lousie Law's Awakening installation at the Honolulu Art Museum. We never see music videos of sound baths, and this is what I sought to do. A sensuous celebration with light-infused visuals.
Years ago, I found myself lying down in an open pagoda, full of stars and owls in Costa Rica’s protected Cloud Forest. I was off-grid at yoga teacher training. This happened to be the place I experienced my first sound bath. I had no idea how transformed I would be. I remember it still so vividly.
These sounds slowly building into a cathedral of energy, dancing on flowers and over our skin. I wanted to evoke that iridescent-like feeling by creating effects to show things literally vibrating.
Enter the Goddess herself, Nicky, inspired by her Chinese Guanyin. It is ethereal lusciousness, sensuous celebration, and an awakening of our inner peace.

Your body waking up at dawn is a feeling surfers know in their soul. It's a marvelous feeling of peace, and it has nothing to do with skill level. It is about connecting with the ocean. This film was shot for a surf camp tucked between the wild, untouched beaches in Nicaragua's south shores. It is an ode to the pause, this morning ritual of breathing and observing the ocean before surfboard and skin touch the water.
