This work in development explores the transformation of the trans body through the process of Hormonal Replacement Therapy (HRT). Like nuclear fusion that combines atomic nuclei into a more powerful and complex entity, HRT unites organic biology and medical technology to create a new hybrid identity. The trans body becomes a field where the boundaries between nature and technology become blurred. More than a medical treatment, HRT is also an artistic and cultural act. In this post-human era, the trans body is no longer a mere biotic entity, rather a symbol of the dynamic evolution of human identity, a living work of art that reflects the human journey that is always in a state of flux and always beyond the traditional concept of humanity that we previously understood.
