One Night in August is a collection containing three phases that encapsulate different stages of a healing journey. This collection tells a story of where I've been, the emotions I've processed, and my reflections on growth and change. Art has been a massive tool in my emotional regulation over the years, and I truly believe art is therapeutic. If interested, take time to read each description of this collection to better tell my story with emotional turmoils, taking action, and reflection. At the minimum, this is a collection of cool art for you to enjoy. 

Phase One tells the story of rising and unruly emotions. 
Phase Two illustrates the process of healing. 
Phase Three is all about the reflection – it’s the art made from the metaphorical emotional summit. 

Redeemables: Collecting one (1) piece from each phase before October 1, 2022 will result in holders receiving a new, airdropped 1/1. These pieces are categorized as the 'Legendary Phase' of this collection. 

One Night in August

ONIA #12

An ode to Eckart Tolle's theory on how the body stores trauma, my own experiences with the painbody were instrumental in my healing process. Some might call them triggers, or getting activated, or the painbody but the meaning is all the same: past events that resurface into current situations. We maintain power when we can recognize these feelings, honor them, and let them go. Letting them consume or run the show indefinitely always leads to more pain. The awareness to see the painbody is the real work -- this piece represents the beginning of that process for myself.
