  • ✿ This votive candle comes with one of twelve high-quality postcard prints of the album artwork. The postcards each have a unique digital download code for the album printed on the back. The candle is made of beeswax with sweet almond cream fragrance. It was created by making a silicone mould from a 3d scan and print of myself, in the pose in which I appear on the album cover. You can see a video of it burning along to "Almonds of the Present Moment" here: youtu.be/RUX8nNBT5IM

    ✿ Votive candles are used to aid prayer in many spiritual practices. I imagine them to clarify and illumine the intention of the one who prays, and to act as offerings to the forces that help bring about what is desired.

    ✿ This particular candle is modelled on the Greek Orthodox τάματα (tamata), votive offerings (often in candle form) that are dedicated to a saint, and act as a link between individual human desire and infinite, divine life force. I'm drawn to these objects because of the association for me with the healing power of art.

    ✿ This votive candle is the physical manifestation of Abundance.

    ✿ I light it to thank the life force for my continued creative transformation through music and song. I light it to illumine my path through future transformations, as long as I move and breathe. I light it to thank the life force for my return to the earth, once I move and breathe no more. I invite you to light it, to meditate on your own time and on all you wish to creatively transform in yourself.

    ✿ The Abundance votive candle was realised through the generous collaboration of Savvas Avraam at CYENS - Thinker Maker Space (3d scan and print) and Vasiliki Riala at ÷χρονικό (silicone mould and candle).     ... more

lyrics

Ολου του κόσμου τα καλά
να τα `χα δεν τα θέλω
ας έχει ο κόσμος τα καλά
κι εγώ αυτόν που θέλω

If I could have all the joys in the world
I would not want them,
let the world have its joys
and I the one I desire

Ήθελα να `μουν άρωμα
που βάνεις στα μαλλιά σου
σε κάθε σου αναπνοή
να μπαίνω στη καρδιά σου.

I wish that I were a scent
that perfumes your hair,
so that with each breath
I could enter your heart

Όσα άστρα έχει ο ουρανός
ο ήλιος, το φεγγάρι
έτσι κι εγώ θα σ’ αγαπώ
μέχρι να μπω στον Άδη

As much as there are stars in the sky,
and the sun, and the moon,
so much will I love you,
until I travel to the underworld

Για σένα κλαίω και πονώ
και βαριαναστενάζω
μα τέτοιο πόνο με χαρές
χιλιάδες δεν αλλάζω
The Perfume

I cry and suffer for you
and sigh heavily
but I would not trade such pain
for a thousand joys
