I found enough to share. Take all you need.

Page Turner is an assemblage artist who collects items of deep personal meaning to create delicate sculptural pieces infused with a new feminist aesthetic and a soulful reverence for her heritage.

Turner has exhibited widely in Virginia, North Carolina, Washington DC, and Los Angeles.

Wilson Museum at Hollins University in Roanoke. Turner was the cover artist for Exponent II Magazine—Publishing the Experiences of Mormon Women since 1974 and Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought. Her sculptures have been featured in Immediate Present, Artemis Journal: Artist and Writers of the Blue Ridge, and in multiple issues of Studio Visit Magazine and Exponent II Magazine.
