Why Return to Art as a Symbolic Ritual?
Symbolic ritual has accompanied humanity since our earliest steps as Homo sapiens. Long before writing or organized religion existed, we danced around the fire, painted caves with natural pigments, and buried our dead with meaningful objects. These were ways to connect with the mysteries of life, to ask nature for rain, fertility, good harvests. But also to mark transitions: births, deaths, unions, farewells.
Art and ritual were not separate. They were sacred languages to express the invisible, to bring order to chaos, to transform the human experience.
Returning to ritual today is about remembering that ancestral ability to infuse an action, an object, a moment with meaning. It’s about reconnecting with our creative power—with that part of us that can look at a rock and fill it with significance, that can turn a simple gesture into something sacred.
UNO is an invitation to return to yourself through art. To touch your unconscious, bring your fears, desires, your light and shadow to the surface. To perform a symbolic act that allows you to transform something within, to plant an intention, to close a cycle.
It is a journey inward that invites contemplation. To listen for what wants to be expressed and to give it shape through different creative tools. To find a personal language that translates your inner world into gesture, image, action.
UNO invites you to open a sacred space. To awaken your creative self. To reconnect with that vertical dimension of experience that unites the unconscious with the conscious.
A fleeting moment that stays with you forever.
A before and after.
