Manjot Kaur: What Happens In Punjab


Listen Later

In this episode, I speak with  Manjot Kaur, an artist whose work transcends the realms of speculative fiction and ecological narratives. Manjot's art challenges the traditional focus on humans as central figures, exploring the deeper meanings of humanity and its relationship with the non-human world. Her paintings are a journey into a future beyond conventional boundaries, envisioning a multispecies world where the concepts of queer and human are redefined. Join us as we explore these fascinating themes with Manjot.

Manjot breathes animation into her work, infusing it with sound and movement, turning paint and canvas into living, breathing experiences that challenge and charm in equal measure. Her installation work—merging art with ecology—demands we confront the political tensions surrounding our most vital resources: water, air, and food. 

This episode is more than just a discussion; it's an odyssey that traverses the rich textures of Indian miniature paintings, the solitary refinement of creation during a global pandemic, and the robust spirit required to navigate the Indian art landscape.
