1-1 Harmonized (An ongoing saga)
Here is the first season of artworks as part of a larger body of work. The saga begins with 13x 1/1 (same day mint) telling the story of life's journey in 4 acts. These 2-4k animated loops also double up as framable JPEGS. You can also view/bid/offer/buy the 1/1s from seasons 1-3 by clicking the buttons above.
From the vibrant highs of jubilant moments to the serene lows of introspective reflection, the Harmonized Collection captures the essence of our shared human experience.
The 1 of 1s are windows into the soulful exploration of existence. Each stroke, every frame, resonates with the universal melody that connects us all. Whether it's the dance of light on a canvas or the ebb and flow of life's tapestry.
Indulge in the beauty of life's symphony. Acquire your unique piece from the Harmonized Collection and become a custodian of a narrative that transcends the boundaries of conventional art, celebrating the harmonious journey we all share.
Each digital 1 of 1 that is purchased comes with a framed physical 42 x 60 cm version. More details to come later.
The Calling
Who am I really in this world? Am I all the things I believe myself to be, or is it simply an illusion, a play in which I’m acting?
I’ve travelled so far in my journey looking for something. Something that has alluded me for until now.
Who am I?
I’ve finally come to a realisation.
Its only once I remove all things, I believe myself to be, that I can honestly know who I am.
When I know who I am, the journey becomes enjoyable and the destination even more so.
The Mysterious Reason
I want to be heard. I want to smile and talk to people, but everyone is in their own world and so am I.
On so many journeys slowly I learn that being heard is not something anyone should expect to happen automatically.
It’s better to be a person worth being heard than creating noise.
Also, if strangers started talking to each other what would it be about?
Maybe the answer can be found in the notion that we can all find comfort and peace in quietness.
Interesting Vicissitudes
When I think about what I’m going to do, it never quite works out exactly the way I wanted it to. I become too analytical, I let my mind think of multiple scenarios and spend time trying to pick the right one to act on.
Then I realise that I think too much. I observed my mind and realised why.
It’s the attachment of the mind and who I think I am that gets in the way of an enjoyable experience.
Now I just relax and observe the thoughts in the mind with non-attachment.
Reishi's Workout
Something happened last night. I realised after a long time that trying to discipline myself into a strict routine that it wasn’t the way to achieve my goals.
If you want something a lot, the need for the goal should transcend any need to force discipline or implement a strict routine in order to achieve it.
I now know that everyone has something in their lives that makes them content enough that nothing about it feels like a routine. It just happens, as does nature.
Apollo's Lyre
When is one content with the things he or she acquires?
Acting out of greed or anger is something that humans shouldn’t emulate. Not because it is good or bad, but because it doesn’t resonate with who we are.
Going against who we are is catching a tiger by its tail.
Birds Of A Feather
I had a vision in the open steppes. I saw who I wanted to become. I heard the call and I answered.
There’s no deliberate method to visualise who you want to become, as everyone is different.
However, when people ask to not think of a pink elephant, what’s the first thing that comes to mind?
Luel's Map
Everyone has a reason to do what they want. I stand here with a map that leads to what I want. I know that the map is not the territory. So then, why do I study it so much?
Perhaps it’s because the world owes me or you nothing. It is up to me to investigate my hopes, dreams and ambitions and follow through with it.
I remember to be thankful for what I have though. I don’t want to make this ‘want’ for more tricking me into thinking I that what I have already isn’t enough.
It is enough.
What we anchor ourselves in becomes our reality.
Elvana's Revelations
For every person that celebrates the wins of life, the equal opposite is true.
Not everyone can reach the finish line and be content with what they’ve achieved. I’ve pierced through the veil of who I think I am and I now see things a bit more clearly.
Anyone who doesn’t celebrate wins of life does so out of fear.
You’ve heard that fear is false evidence appearing real.
When you lose fear of failure you can now excel and seek new opportunities or see the opportunities that are given to you clearly.
Your path to success is achievable, if you want it to be.
I Dreamed A Dream
I dreamed a dream about what today could bring. That was the moment I freed myself from the person of who I thought I was.
Like seeing the world from a top-down perspective, I gained new insight. No longer would I see things from one perspective. I now see things from as many angles as possible.
I may not see all the angles and I may never do in my lifetime. However, it has led me to something priceless – freedom.
When we escape the thoughts of who we think we are, then we can truly experience the free to experience the wonder of life.
The Viscount Boon
It took me decades of self-investigation to come to the conclusion that I, nor any man, woman or child in the universe need any doctrine in order to sufficiently find joy in life.
I used to pray to the heavens. Within my prayers I found that it was to help myself – no matter how flowery the language was. That I was pretending to be pious, following one doctrine after the next thinking it would give me the answers.
It turns out the boon I was given was to follow no doctrine. To simply allow myself to experience life. When I did that the world became saturated with vibrancy.
Margin Call
We crave pleasure. We chase it as if we are running away from something. What is that something? Is it because we pursue pleasure that we feel pain?
Is the pleasure worth the pain?
What if you stopped pursuing pleasure – knowing that you already have everything within you to be content. Then I suppose the pleasure wouldn’t be a thing to pursue anymore.
It’s the addiction of pursuing pleasure that creates discontent.
Seeing it as an addiction is the first step to knowing that who you are at the core is enough.
Queen Mente
I live in the nexus of now. Since I left the world, happiness no longer satisfies me. I move with calm confidence knowing I’m deeply rooted in harmony with the present moment. It gives me great joy.
People often ask how this is achieved.
Follow ye ever the path of wisdom.
Only by this can ye rise from below.
Ever man's destiny leads him onward
into the Curves of Infinity's ALL.
(Emerald Tablets of Thoth)
