“Earth Hum” is dedicated to Rachel Martin’s Family Tree, a drawing that combines art, earth, and love all into one. In a conversation with Martin, we learn a little bit more about her art told through her own voice and drawings as well as the ethereal presence of friends and old Super 8 footage. Like Martin says, in art, you see that there are magical things happening but it is really very human.

"holding hands with the moon" is a celebration of a not-so-common-coming-of-age inspired by isolation during the pandemic and the consequential anxiety that came with it. Terra is not only learning to live with her anxiety, but also appreciating all of the little things in life that bring her immense joy and her unwavering (and borderline obsessive) love for the moon. Through it all though, magic is never too far away from Terra’s familiar life.
