bitumen emulsion, vinyl, wood

A stark and industrial composition by Daniel Turner, this work employs raw materials — bitumen emulsion, vinyl, and wood — as both medium and subject, collapsing the boundary between material and meaning. Turner's practice interrogates the residue of industrial processes, allowing the inherent properties of each substance to assert themselves on the surface. The result is a quietly confrontational object that speaks to cycles of production, decay, and transformation.
