Deasa Turner

The eye-catching artwork of Deasa Turner addresses events, issues, and concerns that all individuals have in their lives—whether personal, social, political, or cultural. Theatrical tableaus and scenes about life are formed from the creation of assemblages from old and new found objects. All materials are fair game and include common, mass-produced, vintage, and junk. Children’s toys, birdcages, old phones, and kitchenware are a few of the items that are characteristic of Turner’s work.
