Lately, it feels like trees have been outing their human characteristics to all of us, both literally and figuratively. This phenomenon has captured my imagination and often wonder if they are begging us to see them in a familiar way, so that we may quicken our hearts and resources to protect them, the environment and ultimately ourselves. The ongoing series, Garden of Eden began in 2023, and is still in progress.

LILITH, From the series Garden of Eden. | According to ancient folklore, Adams’s 1st wife was Lilith. Legend has it Adam demanded of God to send her away because she wouldn't obey him. Until the late 20th century, Lilith had a reputation as a seductress, stealer of babies, and a demon in hiding. To many, Lilith is hailed as a matriarch whose love language was neither obedience nor dominance but rather the symbol of mutual respect, autonomy, independent thought, good humor, and sexual awareness.

GOING HOME | From the series, Garden of Eden. I was visiting Mom in the Cemetery on Mother's Day, when the plane flew over low and slow. To me, it was a wave and a sign she's in a happy place. I'm aware it could have easily been some other Mom waiving at her kid, who was also visiting that day, but what the heck, I'll take it.
