Girls on Brooms by Erica Thi
Inspired by: Lunch Break by Greig Sanders
Artist Statement:
This poem was inspired by Greig Sanders’ Lunch Break, which features a blend of Ghibli influence, high-tech and futuristic mech and a picturesque scenery. This poem attempts to capture the wonder, unexpected adventure and tearful ending Lunch Break would surely evoke if it moved on the page.
