Facing Down Systemic Greed & Other Offenses, is a solo exhibition by Li Turner, whose evocative watercolor paintings examine the pressing social and political issues of our time through a distinctly feminine lens.

Turner has spent decades capturing the complexities of gender, justice, and power, yet her work remains as urgent as ever. Her paintings explore the roles women navigate in society—identity, autonomy, resistance—and the broader struggles against misogyny, discrimination, environmental destruction, and corporate greed. While history appears to cycle through the same injustices, Turner’s work insists on bearing witness and demanding transformation.

Her intimate and bold use of watercolor—a traditionally delicate medium—contrasts with the weight of her themes, reinforcing both the resilience and vulnerability of the subjects she portrays. Her paintings challenge viewers to consider the ongoing fight for equality and the personal stakes within these larger struggles.
