Elliot & Erick Jiménez: El Monte - Heavenly Twins Tote

Embrace the magic of duality, ritual, and ancestral memory with our exclusive Heavenly Twins Tote, created in partnership between Pérez Art Museum Miami and the twins Elliot & Erick Jiménez for their debut solo exhibition, El Monte. This sleek black tote carries an ethereal, starry design inspired by the powerful artwork Heavenly Twins (2024). The piece reflects the sacred bond of twinhood and the spiritual resonance of the Lucumí Ibejí—the divine twins revered in Afro-Cuban heritage. Through its mystical imagery, the work evokes themes of mystery, identity, and protection, drawing viewers into a reflection on ancestry and the unseen energies that connect us all.

Crafted with intention and sustainability in mind, the tote is made of 100% RPET Recycled 190T Polyester, reducing environmental impact while maintaining durability. Measuring 19" wide by 25" high in its flat style, it features an inner handle lining for comfort and strength. The design is custom printed on both the front and back, and each tote carries a custom woven PAMM logo label on both the bag and the pouch. Inside, a striking red interior lining adds a bold flash of color—a hidden detail that makes the bag as stylish on the inside as it is on the outside. The tote folds neatly into a 4.5" custom pouch with a matching zipper, making it practical to carry and store. Whether slipped into a backpack, suitcase, or car, it’s ready whenever you need it—transforming an ordinary accessory into a portable talisman of ritual and design.

The exhibition El Monte takes its name from Lydia Cabrera’s seminal study of Afro-Cuban spirituality and unfolds as a multisensory journey. In it, Elliot and Erick Jiménez create a space that blends Lucumí cosmology, Catholic syncretism, and art historical references into a living chapel, a forest womb where myth, identity, and wonder converge. This tote captures that spirit, offering a wearable reminder of the experience. The Heavenly Twins Tote is not only a keepsake from the Jiménez twins’ first solo museum exhibition at PAMM but also a statement piece imbued with meaning. Practical, sustainable, and deeply symbolic, it’s perfect for daily errands, gallery visits, or quiet moments of reflection.

Illuminate your everyday with intention and carry the spirit of ritual, connection, and wonder wherever you go.
