Hepworth developed a deep fascination with space exploration, planets, and celestial bodies following humanity's first uncrewed moon landing in 1959. These cosmic and celestial motifs frequently manifested in her late-career lithographs, screenprints, and abstract sculptures, emphasizing ovoid shapes, rhythmic intersecting lines, and spatial depth.
