His work has been exhibited in Finland and Denmark\, including at Helsinki Contemporary\, Martin Asbæk Gallery\, and the Charlottenborg Spring Exhibition. His art is featured in prominent collections like the Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma and the Finnish State Art Commission. In 2021\, Turunen received the William Thuring designated prize from the Finnish Art Society.
