About the artist
Keerat Kaur is a Canadian artist of Sikh-Panjabi heritage with a background as a licensed architect (OAA). Her ever-evolving multidisciplinary practice spans painting, sculpture, writing, music, public art, and architecture. Rooted in the written word, her work weaves narrative and symbolism to explore themes of nature and spirituality, drawing deeply from Indic philosophies. Educated in French immersion, she speaks Panjabi, English, French, and Hindi, and is currently studying the Shahmukhi script and the Braj language. She holds a BA from Western University (2012) and a Master of Architecture degree from the University of Toronto (2016), and continues to expand her practice through formal training in Indian classical music (Dhrupad and Khayaal) and traditional Pahari painting.
