{"title":"Kulbir Bhandal","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKulbir Bhandal is an abstract artist painting landscapes that explore the complex cultural and physical search for 'place' and belonging. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eWorking with acrylics on canvas Kulbir’s approach to painting is one of distillation and dialogue. She translates the natural world, its colours, textures, and forms into a refined visual language. Her compositions draw inspiration from a deliberate mixture of observed, imagined, and past spaces.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe central impetus for Kulbir's work stems directly from her biographical journey: born in rural India, growing up in London, and now residing in rural England. This experience of traversing distinct cultural and physical landscapes has made the need for 'finding place' and belonging a strong and consistent focus of her paintings.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKulbir often employs the ‘ideal' landscape as a symbolic stage set.  Within this setting, she explores themes of cultural displacement and the feeling of being between worlds. A nostalgic longing for a sense of 'home' that may, in fact, never have truly existed or dreamscapes that will never be. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKulbir graduated from Camberwell College of Art, where she studied Fine Art and Art History. Her career began in London, where she worked as an art educator and mentor. The transformative shift in her practice came with her move to the Jurassic Coast in Dorset, allowing her to return to painting with renewed focus and purpose. She now lives and works within an intentional community in Bridport, a setting that further informs her exploration of human connection to environment and identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"The artworks in this collection are bridges to my stories, past and
