In moments of monstrous pareidolia, all the things that we don’t consider alive form a new world, a world in our image. Ecopoiesis explores the concept of terraforming, reimagining it through the lens of cosmic horror. Blurring the lines between terrestrial and extraterrestrial, the film invites viewers to challenge their perceptions of human impact on an alien environment, as the visual and auditory landscapes evoke a sense of planetary unease. Within its abstract representation, Ecopoiesis delves into the ethical and existential dilemmas posed by transforming foreign worlds by infecting them with humanity.
