This candle creates an experience- by lighting the organic cotton thread, the fire reveals the melting form. One may watch the candle burn with an intention and presence. The candle may be seen as a symbol, a message, a ritual, an ancestor, a prayer. With this candle intentions were woven into the creative process- the wick is the spine, and with each dip the muscles grow, the tissue, the fat, the skin, the medicine that is infused into each dip. Shapes are formed in water, like earth, like all life. May we find elemental balance and find refuge within our home, our temple, our own skin.
