Earthly Hands

We work with historical records, people, places, archives, maps, film, and the strange paths between them.

We keep sources close, uncertainty visible, and the road back to the record open.

Come work with us.

Earthly Hands is a living workshop. We are interested in archives, families, Nations, researchers, artists, filmmakers, institutions, and records that could change what is presently understood.

Collaboration does not require agreement with a conclusion. The work can change when the evidence changes.
