  Joanne's fine-art photographs are made by hand in small, numbered editions using traditional photographic film and gelatin silver printing techniques. Her works have been shown in galleries in the United States and abroad and are part of numerous private collections. Her latest series, "Turning Point," was created after the six-day blackout in NYC in 2012 and explores the vulnerability and fragile nature of artificial light in the modern urban environment.
