My name is Life Escobar.
I am devoted to creating art that helps us feel our belonging in the web of life and death.
My favorite ways to create are through filmmaking, photography, collage, painting, poetry, dance, and linocut printing.
We are all sacred expressions of Life.
Art helps us remember who we are.
I would love to share my creations with you.

Videos for Movement Building
Through my company Awake Storytelling, I partner with social movements to shift culture through video storytelling.
These videos are movement portraits- visualizing the collective heartbeat of people fighting for liberation.
Systems of oppression are not inevitable.
All systems rooted in domination, extraction, and oppression (white supremacy, imperialism, patriarchy, capitalism, hetero/cisnormativity +) must end.
We have the ability to interrupt the cycles of harm we’ve inherited.
We belong - to each other and to life.
We are earth.
Every life is sacred.
I create videos that inspire us to imagine & act for a world rooted in dignity, justice, and liberation for all.
The future we are building: Indigenous sovereignty, Black liberation, reparations, abolition of the carceral state, ancestral remembrance, and deep care for each other and the earth.

Restore Oakland
Restore Oakland is an organization creating a culture of community care through restorative economics, healing justice, and accessible community spaces. It offers a powerful model for an abolitionist future. I was honored to create this video sharing its impact.
We all have gifts to offer in service of collective liberation.
Together, we can create a regenerative culture that honors all of life.
Your stories can fuel our collective liberation.
Video Storytelling sharing personal stories.
As a filmmaker, it brings me immense joy to listen to people’s stories and help share them with the world.
As we share the gifts born through our personal journeys, we invite others into their own journeys of revelation and transformation.
Watch these videos sharing personal stories for collective liberation.

Video Poetry
There is a story, waiting to be heard...
It’s a story of remembering our bodies as earth. Of being witnessed by earth, by the holy mystery, in all our longings and sorrow and joy.
It’s a story of our erotic life force as gift, prayer, invitation. Of knowing our belonging in the web of life and death.
It’s a love story...
