About the Artist
Glen Turner
I am a self-taught Christchurch based artist that creates from my small workshop and studio at THE LOBE. My work is centred around breathing new life into otherwise discarded parts of nature. I use many different species of beautiful repurposed wood to create unique, one of a kind art works. The materials I use are largely sourced from the local Canterbury region and come from a variety of origins such as post earthquake building demolition, home renovations, industry waste, used furniture and remnants of other creative processes.
