Kokopellima Press is releasing a series of digital & haptic products focused on using the grievechronic revisionist AOLAB active-art monographs as imagination brain builders for kids, cohesive connectivity creators for parents & kids, and art therapy tools for adults on the self-care path.
The M.O? Your pragmatic use of the collections of collages at home for unpacking & understanding your own arcs. You use them like ink blot tests to show you what you're seeing under the surface.
The premise is simple : Buy the AOLAB active-art books, crack them open... & pay attention to the stories that rise up in you taking in the imagery.
Like, for real. Enjoy the ride for what it is...and then put your own words to it.
That m.o. is why the art monographs were originally (& still technically are) published without any words gumming up the artwork. There's an index at the back of each book ...but there was a gauntlet in place one traveled down to retrieve the true names assigned to the respective pieces of art by Angel Brynner (at her discretion).
wildly enough, in 2026 the first four volumes of this collection of active art books|art monographs have been reborn as full-on creative art continuing edu | art therapy tools for kids & adults.*
'grievechronic revisionist active art books' as imagination brain builders and
secret soul story springboards is completely in line with how the aolab collages hit whenever exhibited in the past.
* accompanying at-home/ DIY products [coming soon]
"The road to Grievechronic"Revisionist Series.
Every aspect of /grievechronic\ you buy helps Angel Brynner continue to bring you the Grievechronic Universe and to help adult survivors of abuse learn to thrive with unconventional, battle-tested self care tools they can use to reframe their own stories and take back their tales.
Every step KPM also finds ways to give any who look into our dark fantasy realm something that can be of service to them beyond it.
Because it all begins & ends in the mind.
The point always was & is Transcendence.
& now...all of that is kicking into high gear.
The kids who tagged along to the Angel Brynner /grievechronic\ art shows always got it.
They'd stand in front of the giant images and entertain themselves by riffing their own fairytales. It's because they remember: Being the hero of your own fairytales is what built out your imagination as a child in the first place.
With all the changes in education the parts of the brain that deal with creativity, imagination & comprehension are literally being shut down.
Plus, with incessant screen time the important oxytocin-rich bonding experience of adults reading to kids & encouraging them to fearlessly explore new worlds has all but been erased.
Kokopellima Press knows you can change what you see all around you by leaning in and once again telling yourself silly stories that weirdly make sense to your soul like you did as a child. & you can pass that skill on.
You don't need a new tech gadget...you just need to relearn how to reframe & recalibrate.
The point of the grievechronic revisionist books was always you putting your words to what you see to set your inner kid free.
Even though the collages were storyboards angel brynner created to help her write grievechronic, adults who attended her installations tended to see wholly different tales in the collage work, triggering catharsis centered around their own storylines.
In response to that Angel created the AOLAB active art decks: intuitive inspiration card collections tp help you tune into the true you. Attendees could continue the catharsis at home, at their own pace, art-therapy style + buoyed by words of support from AB's mentors along the way.
The AOLAB Active- Art books finding their way into the fight is just the collages being true to themselves out in the world beyond the /grievechronic\ universe.
...and we're "here" for it.
Joseph Campbell proved that the power never fades with The Power of Myth.
& Carl Jung spoke about the stories your subconscious tells you just beneath the surface to keep you sane.
In a world seemingly gone crazy, remembering how to imagine "for the good" may be the greatest free energy weapon we all have.
