"The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it."
Psalm 24:1

Here Mary is encountered through land — soil, field, mountain, and garden — where cultivation, growth, and seasonal change define daily life. In agrarian traditions, she is associated with planting and harvest. In monastic and rural settings, with enclosed gardens and tended ground. In regions shaped by landscape, with mountains, rivers, and fertile valleys. The connection is not symbolic alone, but rooted in dependence on the land for sustenance. Rendered in compacted Andean adobe soil and ichu grass fiber, ochre and umber earth tones, Quechua agrarian tradition of Peru.
