Eleanor Turnbull

Eleanor Turnbull (b. 1992, Co. Durham, UK) is a sculptor based in Cornwall, UK. Drawn to the rural landscapes she grew up around, Eleanor uses experimental mouldmaking techniques to copy sections of the landscape.

Carefully replicating tide-pools, potholes, puddles and mounds, Eleanor reimagines the bodyless landscape through material and form. The landscape becomes a terran in which to explore the unfathomable body, its psyche and our attachments to the land. 

Eleanor recently graduated with an MFA in Fine Art from The Slade School of Fine Art, London (2022) and won the Sarabande Emerging Artist Fund (2022). She has exhibited and undertaken residencies nationally and internationally. Most recently, Eleanor was awarded the 20th Solo Residency at Unit 1 Gallery | Workshop, London, culminating in her first Solo show in the UK (2022). Full CV available on request.
