Jasleen Kaur - ‘The first thing I did was to kiss the ground’ - for Gravsend

Jasleen Kaur is working with Cement Fields to create a new outdoor artwork for Gravesend in North Kent as part of England's Creative Coast.

Kaur’s work reconsiders the realities of materiality, usage and daily routine within the everyday things that surround us. Her refashioned objects are based on instinct and resourcefulness, reflecting a hybridity of national custom. Kaur’s new work for the Waterfronts series, ‘The first thing I did was to kiss the ground’, will be a response to the connections between the diverse communities in the town, and will also form part of Estuary 2020.
