Artist biographies
​
​Scott Turnbull is a multi-disciplinary, award winning artist who uses live illustration alongside an interactive brand of surreal comedy to tell stories that explore the fine line between the sacred and the profane. He often does this with home-made papier-mache heads, bin-bag capes, the occasional moustache and his trusted 1980’s OHP projector.​​
