Object Blessed by Jasleen Kaur

£500

2024 Turner-Prize winner, the Scottish-Sikh artist Jasleen Kaur, created this ceramic and rubber incense holder, Blessed, in 2022. It’s designed to hold up to twenty Nag Champa incense sticks and comes in two limited editions of six: pigmented, glazed stoneware (blue), or slip-decorated earthenware (brown/ochre). A comment on the commodification and cultural appropriation of the wellness industry, Kaur turns the lowly flip flop into a devotional object just as worthy of appreciation and revere.
