About the Artist
Nai Turner is a visual artist, muralist, clothing designer, and U.S. Army veteran whose work blends realism, surrealism, and street art to tell stories of growth, resilience, and identity. Nai’s creative journey began as a way to process life’s transitions, and has since evolved into a powerful tool for connection and transformation.
Her art has been featured in galleries and public spaces from New York to California, and her large-scale murals breathe new life into communities by honoring culture, storytelling, and everyday people.
Beyond the studio, Nai is the founder of Live or Exist Foundation Inc., a nonprofit that provides food, clothing, and essential support to families in need. Through both her art and activism, she uses creativity as a form of outreach, making space for healing and empowerment.
With Turning Pages, Nai offers a deeply personal yet universal invitation: to pause, reflect, and name the chapter you're in. Inspired by real responses to the question, “If you could name this chapter of your life, what would you call it?”, each piece becomes a mirror, a memory, and a message of hope.
