Joy Banks is a printmaker and multidisciplinary artist based in Vancouver, Canada, the unceded territory of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh peoples. She has been carving linocut prints for over twenty years, creating work that flows out of engagement with marginalized communities, a concern for social justice, and questions of meaning and spirituality. She also facilitates creative and reflective spaces for individuals and groups. Her work invites viewers into moments of reflection where the ordinary and the sacred meet, and where art becomes a mirror for both social reality and personal meaning. Her work has been shown in exhibitions, featured in books and album covers, and is held in private collections worldwide.
