Jane Fulton Alt: Still Life: A Photographer's Journey Through Grief and Gardening

How one woman sublimated sorrow into regeneration by carrying through her deceased husband's ambitious native garden projectCelebrated American photographer Jane Fulton Alt (born 1951) was never a gardener. That changed overnight when her husband Howard unexpectedly died, leaving behind a partially realized native garden--his response to a deepening concern about climate change. With the help and encouragement of her husband's mentors, she picked up a spade and began to dig, assuming full stewardship of the native garden while finding a new source of creativity and sustenance amid the grieving process.Still Life: A Photographer's Journey through Grief and Gardening is a story of resilience. Alt's keen eye and deep insights instruct us on how personal loss can be a catalyst for transformation. With texts by teacher and founding member of Spirit Rock Meditation Center James Baraz, native plant evangelist Doug Tallamy and photography impresario W.M. Hunt, Still Life is a quiet and moving reflection on loss and renewal.
