Georgina Banfield is from London. Educated in catholic primary and secondary schools, she went onto study performing arts and English Literature and attended University to study for a Bachelor of Education.
Georgina did her first reading as part of a Love Poetry Hate Racism event. She was so broken by the experience that she has sought perfection ever since by reguarly attending open mic readings.
She writes a mixture of 'traditional' verse for print and 'freeverse' style suited for performing and is currently putting together a themed collection of poems based around life, love and circumstance. She has performed her poetry over a two night period, alongside visual artists, dancers and musicians in a ‘theatrical’ space in London's East End and has been a featured poet in Ireland (Dublin) this summer which she loved.
Two of her poems have been recorded as part of a collection with a musician/composer. Further collaborations are imminent. She is a regular reader within the London Poetry Circuit....and has no time for 'elitist' poets within the current established poetry scene who cannot accept any form of expression, apart from their own.
