The work confronts directly the dichotomy of modern life and earth life - across millennia.Previously she has explored feminist iconographies , founded a farmer’s market cooperative as well as community gardens.  Her personal work includes the gathering of millions of tree seeds and acorns to help secure the genetic bank of Ireland’s indigenous ancient forests. As a proponent of social change “one neural-net at a time’ she has been involved with lifelong learning, facilitating courses in both photography and organic growing.  “Sister, sister hear my heart  It's time to bring the family back   Together we  must remember earth  We must remember what life is all about” J.Trudell.
