About Parminder Kaur Bhandal

Parminder Kaur Bhandal (she/her) is an artist, librarian, and poet who breathes life into spaces where the heart feels both held and free. Her work—spanning photography, video, installation, wearable art, and poetry—feels like a garden in bloom, rooted in ancestry and watered by the small, sacred acts of love and memory.

Her poetry is a quiet rebellion, soft yet unyielding, an offering to the ones who came before and the ones yet to come. She writes of belonging, of lands carried in the folds of a dupatta, of voices that refuse to be forgotten. Her words carry the scent of marigolds, the sound of leaves in prayer, the ache of longing that transforms into grace.
