Jasleen Kaur (born 1986, Pollokshields, Glasgow, Scotland; lives in London, England) explores cultural memory and political belonging. Kaur makes with the slurry of life, interested in the social histories contained within the material things that surround us. In her practice, mass-produced, everyday objects are coded with symbols and images, questioning how the narratives we inherit circulate in discreet ways and, in turn, shape us. Solo exhibitions include Alter Altar, Tramway, Glasgow (2023); Flesh ‘n’ Blood, Humber Street Gallery, Hull (2021); Gut Feelings Meri Jaan, Touchstones Rochdale (2021); and Be Like Teflon, Glasgow Women’s Library (2019). Selected group exhibitions include Williamson Art Gallery and Museum, Birkenhead, England; Two Temple Place, London (both 2025); Primary, Nottingham; Aspex, Portsmouth (2024); Build Hollywood, Glasgow (2023); Touchstones, Rochdale, England (2023); Wellcome Collection, London (2021); Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art, Newcastle (2019); Cubitt Gallery, London (2018); MIMA, Middlesbrough, England (2018); and Eastside Projects, Birmingham (2017). In 2019, her book Be Like Teflon was copublished by Glasgow Women’s Library and Dent-De-Leone. Kaur is the winner of the 2024 Turner Prize, and she was awarded an honorary doctorate by the Glasgow School of Art in 2025.
