LA’s fallen street ads transformed into vibrant wall art
They All Fall Down
Turner’s latest collection, They All Fall Down, is an exploration of consumerism, advertising, fashion and its fleeting nature in society. What is trash? What is art? Where do they intersect?
In her 50 pieces, Turner has repurposed wild posting advertising from across Los Angeles collected for over a year. The temporary poster advertisements - damaged, wet, ripped, graffitied, stained, or pristine then became the medium for the new works.
Amy says the process involved a detailed process of acquisition, cultivating and curating the found images, "In LA, when it rains, the city literally falls apart. I took to the streets, collecting fallen images to curate in my studio and create new art."
