Since 1977 she has revisited areas seven times, visually tracking variations in the practice as the Indian culture changed. She worked with women in neighbourhoods and villages, as well as, with Indian scholars in North and South India to create a visual and textual testament to the importance of the threshold diagrams as is chronicled in her book, Across the Threshold of India: Women, Art and Culture
