I ran a spiritual goods publishing entity, or what I called a bedroom botánica, from 2014 to 2020 under the name of Curandera Press. Via this imprint I produced ritual tools, including prayer candles, that shipped all over the USA. Curandera Press explored the shifting Latinx identity and was heavily shaped by my community on Chicago’s Southside. These are examples of the candles that were produced during that time.
