HomeBound - Amrit Kaur

Amrit Kaur's HomeBound is an ode to memory, migration, and the delicate threads of belonging. Rooted in her Sikh-Punjabi heritage, the works draw upon motifs such as phulkari and bagh, honouring the craftsmanship of unknown artisans of Punjab while reimagining these traditions through contemporary forms. Using beads, impasto, and acrylics, Amrit creates textured paintings, vases, and installations that are both tactile and immersive. Her works invite viewers to pause, notice small details, and reflect on how journeys continually reshape the meaning of home.

Presented in association with Te Ahurei Toi o Tāmaki Auckland Arts Festival 2026.
