WHAT COLLECTORS, CRITICS, AND ADMIRERS ARE SAYING
Banker’s work is powerful, intense and thought provoking. She digs deep within the human consciousness and creates canvases of layered, shimmering colors which captivate the viewer and invite an intimate dialog with the work. As a viewer it is easy to become entranced in the work while examining the translucent layers, the explosive colors and the emotional content and find that one has connected with the work on a deeply satisfying level.
~ Mary Whisonant, Curator & Art Critic
The work of artist Karen Banker walks through awareness, self-discovery, and the journey to the inside. There are layers beneath the physical exterior, beneath the surface of conversations, thoughts and ideas.
