In this portrait-oriented composition, Hearn utilizes the tactile nature of collage to bridge the gap between the domestic past and a speculative future. The work draws heavily on retro sci-fi tropes, placing figures or objects within a celestial theater that feels both nostalgic and strangely alien. By layering disparate elements, the artist creates a sense of depth that mimics the layered mysteries of the cosmos itself.

The visual language leans into the surreal, where the scale of the universe is filtered through a vintage lens. The grainy textures and specific color palettes of the source material ground the astronomical themes in a human, analog history. It is an exploration of how we once imagined the future, rendered through the physical act of cutting and reassembling fragments of the past.
