Biography

Daniel Turner is a visual artist working primarily in sculpture involving the creation or manipulation of materials, objects and environments into tactile or atmospheric forms. These forms are often characterised by a specific response to an environment under a controlled set of processes. This approach has enabled the artist to base form on transposition through distilling environments directly into the realm of public architecture. These elements are present in former works where an entire waiting room is cast into a series of solid bars, a psychiatric facility reduced to a darkened stain against an exhibition wall, or a cafeteria dissolved across the expanse of a floor.
