Oli Turner (b. 2003) is a visual artist from Yorkshire, currently based in Glasgow. Her practice is multidisciplinary, rooted in the exploration of landscape, place and memory. Having recently graduated from the Glasgow School of Art in Fine Art Photography (First-Class BA (Hons)), she has since received multiple awards, including the Visual Arts Scotland Graduate Award and selection for RSA New Contemporaries.

Her work is shaped by journeys into remote and rural environments, investigating themes of ecology, decay and the interrelationship between inner and outer worlds. Using a contemplative visual language, she reflects on the evolving bond between humans and the natural world, creating work that invites slow looking and reflection.

Recent projects have focused on the ritual landscapes of the British Isles, particularly Neolithic sites in Scotland, where layers of human history lie embedded in the earth. For Oli, these ancient places act as portals to explore continuity between past and present, revealing how memory and meaning can be held within the land itself. At the heart of her practice is a search for solace in nature - a counterpoint to the disconnection and noise of contemporary life.

When not exploring in remote environments, she works at her studio in East Glasgow where the door is always open, come swing by for a chat !
