Life under domes

‘Life under domes’ is set in a futuristic world after considerable further destruction has led to inhospitable, unstable weather conditions. While this has pushed human, animal and plant life into new urban settings inside domes that are safe for living, there seems to be a positive and hopefully energy contained within these domes. Technology is highly advanced and humans, robots, and artificial intelligence seem to live and work peacefully side-by-side, ensuring healthy ecosystems, fostering biodiversity, and good mental and physical health alike. Building domes and a variety of ecosystems within them becomes a healthcare intervention in itself, as it provides shelter and rehabilitative spaces for humans, plants and animals. In its exploration of new tasks for both well-established and new reasons, ‘Life under domes’ transports a sense that future societies cannot repeat what has happened ‘out there’ before. To have good health, the environmental must be protected wherever we are.
