Jud Turner's latest work is the literary-inspired sculpture entitled Lotus Eaters. Turner has incorporated the classical epic story Homer's Odyssey into this latest work of art. The concept focuses on characters from the books known as the Lotophagi who fed on a plant making them narcotic. This aqua-colored piece features eight pedals with skulls on top staring into a reflecting ball.
