Goran Turnsek

Goran Turnšek is a Slovenian-Dutch artist whose photographic practice is shaped by his background in dance. Moving from performance to photography, he explores movement, memory, and the relationship between the body and space. His work investigates how the body occupies, transforms, and leaves traces within an environment, often drawing on the memory of movement itself.
