She began her current era of creative work after her body retired her from midwifery, moving her from a world governed by birth into a world of making magic and art as medicine. A fierce disability justice advocate, Alanna&#8217;s work centres healing and transformation in both her artistic processes, and her work&#8217;s presentation as rooted in community. Her work is marked by lived resilience, passionate survival, and the transition from sickness to beauty-in-imperfection. Her practices of meditation, martial arts, and journaling to vision the future are interwoven into her creative process. She is also a mother, a gardener and herbal medicine maker, and a lover of community building and community care.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7250ddb elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7250ddb\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-71470c2\" data-id=\"71470c2\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a8fbce4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a8fbce4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"517\" src=\"https:\/\/artscisalon.com\/who-cares\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/02\/Alanna-Gail-Kibbe-Hope-Coccoon.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-279\" alt=\"Two skeletal bodies are wrapped around each other, in holding and protection, within a womb-like cocoon.
