His experience in the kitchen coupled with his work as a photograper was the inspiration for his Heritage Radio Network show “The Food Seen.” Turkell explores the tension that exists between art and food with guests whose work tends to blur those lines. Turkell is especially well equipped to discuss art and/or food and he does so, seamlessly transitioning between the two subjects, always finding a way to blend the topics in a way that is accessible, unpretentious and fascinating. Recent guests include: Sean Brock, Mary Ann Caws and Charles Phan.
