Christy Turner

Christy Turner is a multimedia artist specializing in relief printmaking, book arts, and embroidery. She works primarily in single-color relief printmaking or fine line embroidery, using stark black and white imagery featuring a high level of textural, tactile detail. Turner’s lifelong interest in biology and natural sciences forms the foundation for much of her artwork, which often combines natural science with the macabre, a blend of scientific illustration and morbid imagery that documents humanity’s influence on the natural world around us. Turner’s work has been featured in a variety of juried exhibitions across the U.S., and has appeared in publications such as Kithe Journal and Mixed Media Art Magazine.
