EXHIBITION HIGHLIGHTS

Keerat Kaur: If Gardens Could Dream July 4–Aug 30, 2026 Kaur’s practice unfolds within the lived realities of the South Asian diaspora, where culture is shaped by movement, memory, and re-telling. Working across painting, sculpture, digital media, embroidery, poetry, and performance, Kaur draws from Sikh and broader Indic poetic traditions—ways of thinking and making in which metaphor and image are used to hold ways of living and understanding. Within Sikh culture, such imagery has long offered guidance: poetic forms and natural elements are used to reflect on humility, devotion, balance, and relational responsibility.
