One of Trina's most striking works is a life-size sculpture of the story of Abraham and Isaac, displayed at the iconic Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City.

There were many highlights for me at Bioneers by the Bay in 2009, one of them was meeting environmental activist and visionary Vandana Shiva.

In face of loss beyond words I would draw a card with a caterpillar, a cocoon and a butterfly illustrating a favorite text, "Life is changed, not taken away."
