Terraforming - the hypothetical process of deliberately modifying a planet or moons’ atmosphere, volatile components, temperature, surface topography or ecology to make it habitable for Earth life.

This continued body of work uses self-representation to explore identity and ancestral correlation when biological connections are severed and questioned.
