Kaur approaches painting as a space of infinite possibility, play, and experimentation. This exhibition will unfold in the space as a dynamic series of modular works, where smaller paintings will evolve into large-scale compositions, constantly growing, shrinking, and shifting.

The exhibition will feature over 125 works of art that include poles, panels, masks, bowls, and other sculptures all intertwined with traditional knowledge. These works will be on loan from public and private collections across Canada and the United States.
