Cathy Turner is a British artist and researcher, specialising in dramaturgy, site-specific performance and walking art.
Turner's dramaturgical research focuses on the relationship between performance and place,[4] an area she has explored and documented in her book Dramaturgy and Architecture: Theatre, Utopia and the Built Environment.
[5] Turner is a founding member of Wrights & Sites, a group of artist-researchers who develop site-specific artistic works.
These include 'Er Outdoors' a series of radio programs curated by Jo Norcup that make 'audible the voices of women past and present';[9] and WALKING WOMEN, a series of exhibitions, talks and events curated by Amy Sharrocks and Clare Qualmann that actively 're-write the canon' and 'imagine a future in which gender bias and skewed vision is destroyed'.
