This two-part passport-inspired work confronts the politics of documentation and erasure. Passports, designed to prove belonging, here become sites of denial.

By reimagining the passport as a weapon of exclusion, the work draws attention to how migrants, refugees, and stateless people are rendered “non-territorial,” stripped of identity by the very documents meant to secure it. Within the context of my Planet 2.0 series, the piece extends this critique into a speculative future: if Earth itself is lost, will we all be stamped out of existence, reclassified as aliens wherever we arrive?

This work reveals how the future of migration is not abstract, but already present. The passport becomes an artifact of both memory and prophecy , a reminder that borders are tools of power, and that belonging has always been contested.
