Relax Fish
It has been scientifically proven that staring at fish is relaxing. Right now the world is very un-relaxing. Chaos is lovely, but going crazy in the middle of it, not so lovely.
Remembering to breathe, exit panic mode, find ground, then dive back in…my modern mantra. Still going crazy, but at least there’s less noise and I’m happier.
Adopt a fish today, and see if it works for you🌻
The Relax Fish project is a multi-media multi-reality ongoing art project with the goal of helping to spread some positive vibes in an effort to fight the forces of chaos and the dark reality it seems to be currently creating in a non-violent way friendly and fun way. I mean, who doesn’t like goldfish?
At the time of this minting, 32 animations have been created and 30 minted between Base and Tezos, all have been uploaded to Giphy and Tenor. On the physical side, close to 150 hand-painted Relax Fish have been distributed/adopted to people around the US and world ranging in size from the standard 4x5inch on-paper all the way to 72x36inch triptychs.
