Elliot & Erick Jiménez: El Monte Incense Set of 20

Step into the mystery of El Monte—not just at the museum, but in your own sacred space. Created in collaboration with Pérez Art Museum Miami and twin artists Elliot & Erick Jiménez, this limited-edition incense set carries the spiritual essence of their groundbreaking exhibition into your home.

The exhibition El Monte is inspired by the rich world of Afro-Cuban spirituality and Lucumí traditions, where ritual, ancestry, and the natural world intertwine. In the Jiménez twins’ work, the forest (monte) is not only landscape but also sanctuary, shrine, and protector—a place where identities shift, spirits dwell, and transformation unfolds. Their imagery draws on sacred ceremonies, folkloric storytelling, and the dual forces of light and shadow, offering a portal into the mystical bond between body, nature, and spirit.

This incense set reflects that inspiration through the scents resin of sacred trees revered for centuries in spiritual traditions across the globe. Its deep red smoke has been used in healing and protection rituals, for setting sacred boundaries, and for amplifying spiritual energy. With a soft, amber-like fragrance—rich yet calming—it creates an atmosphere of grounding, release, and heightened awareness. Light a stick to invite balance, cleanse heavy energies, or enrich meditation and manifestation practices. Every box of 20 incense sticks echoes the exhibition’s themes: ritual, ancestry, protection, and transformation. As smoke rises, it mirrors the Jiménez twins’ vision of the monte as a living, breathing spiritual force—mysterious, powerful, and deeply connected to cultural memory.

Whether you light one as you reflect on the gallery’s shadowy Ibejí figures, deepen your meditation practice, or simply invite a moment of calm into your day, the El Monte Incense Set brings the magic of the museum—and the powerful heritage of El Monte—to your fingertips.

Bring mystery. Bring wonder. Bring El Monte into your home.
