Emma Banks

Emma Banks is a 21st century 15 yr. old who believes she should have been
born in the sixties. This is quite evident by the fact that she carries
around a 60’s style cat basket, listens to music via record player, and
writes her poetry first drafts with a typewriter. She currently attends
Appomattox Regional Governor’s School for the Arts and Technology, where she
is a Literary Arts major.

Artist’s Statement:
The work I produce is dedicated to the incredibly fragile state of
interaction between our species and the natural world. My pieces,
“Simplicity” and “Requiem” demonstrate just a few of such interactions.
