rebels with a heart
Earth Family emerged in 2020, during a time of collective
isolation, from & for a vision of reverence and reconnection.
We are a non-profit, ethos-inspired creative studio generating art and activism projects.
Our projects speak for the voice-less and touch upon social taboos to affect positive change. We inspire a way of seeing the current state of the world as an opportunity for a loving reconnection with ourselves, each other and our planet.
Earth Family is under the direction and care of Marisa Papen and Michael Chichi — who reside on the Big Island of Hawaii as both creative allies and husband & wife.
