"When you change the way you see people, your experience of people changes." --Nic Askew

Soul Biographies: Nic Askew

Creator of Soul Biographies, Nic Askew's life took an unexpected turn in 2005 when a lucid daydream to pick up a film camera and use it in a profound fashion consumed him and dissolved any internal doubt. He describes this moment as one of "knowing" what he just had to do, as opposed to "believing" or "wanting" something.

Since that day, Nic has used this camera to capture bare human presence, taking his film subjects beyond the experience of mind --and into their inner, wiser, more intuitive and intelligent world. Through a nearly two-decade journey in explorative film, he has discovered that there is a profoundly simple way to be together with someone and begin to capture them -- which is not an interview, but an Inner View. More about his life and work here.
