Artist statement
The pursuit of art is a lifelong journey for me. An early introduction to sculpting by my father set me on a path that I would follow for a lifetime. My education at The School of the Art Institute in Chicago brought me some early success and attention. My career as a writer and art director for a large advertising agency took off early life but it was sculpting that always fed my passion.
Wood has been my medium of choice and it is the material I feel most comfortable working with. By nature, wood has a quality of unruliness to it, knots and swirls, rough textures and variation in color, but when working with it, it also allows you to discover its structure and to bring out its beauty. In this way working with wood reminds me of working through the struggles of daily life.
Steve Turner.

- Trio of Hand Carved Wood Sculpture, Tall Carved Poplar TotemsBy Steve TurnerLocated in Chicago, ILThese hand-carved poplar sculptures transforms from an open, geometric cage form at the bottom to a serpent head at the top.

- Jim Rose - Shaker Inspired Chest of Drawers, Steel Furniture Natural Rust PatinaBy Jim RoseLocated in Chicago, ILThis chest of drawers was inspired by the forms and sensibilities of Shaker furniture. Here, artist Jim Rose puts his spin on the shaker design by using naturally rusted steel. The warmth of the patina evokes a cherished family heirloom. This piece will add interest and functionality to any room. Jim Rose Chest of Drawers repurposed steel with natural rust patina 78h x 35w x 18d in 198.12h x 88.90w x 45.72d cm JR0270 Jim Rose b. 1966, d. 2023 Bio: Born in Indiana, Jim Rose lived in Europe until he returned to the United States to attend college. After one year at Bard College, Jim transferred to the School of the Art Institute in Chicago (SAIC) where he graduated in 1988 with a BFA. His skillful interpretation of the Shaker design is a result of intense research and field study of Shaker furniture, architecture, culture and history. After over two decades of dedicated work, he has mastered the minimalism of the Shaker technique and created his own unique visual vernacular. The quilts of Gee's Bend have become a monumental influence taking this artist's work to new levels of unique interpretation and artistry. His selection of aged steel results in a patina directly related to that of aged wood while his colored strips beautifully mimic worn cloth. Each piece of furniture is masterfully made and intended for daily use. Jim Rose’s steel furniture is featured every year at SOFA Chicago for the past 25 years.
