Simran Kaur Panesar is a Kenyan born artist, living in London, with roots hailing in Punjab and India. Simran’s work in miniature paintings, frescos and motifs is a testament to the rich heritage of Sikhism, interweaving tales of her Kenyan roots and Punjab lineage in the strokes of her brush. 

 In this episode of the Golden Pages podcast, Simran takes us through the intriguing world of Indian and Persian Miniature Art, revealing her creative process, from making her own paints to foraging for pigments in nature. She discusses the deep spirituality and divinity embedded in her art, and we also explore the nuances that distinguish modern art practices from traditional forms. 

This episode is not just about art; it is about tradition, storytelling, and the beauty of finding meaning in your practice.
