“liminal space” is shaping up to be mxmtoon’s most reflective work yet, capturing the turbulence of transitioning into adulthood.

“It’s been a turbulent time, and at points, I felt completely suspended in a space I didn’t fully understand,” she shared in a press release. “Life has thrown countless questions my way, and for many, I’ve had no answers. It was in that uncertainty that liminal space was born.”
