In this, the second episode of The UP Podcast, join us in the town of Rochdale in Greater Manchester as our host Hettie Judah visits Jasleen Kaur’s Gut Feeling Meri Jaan exhibition, on the day of its launch. A fascinating series of artworks created by Kaur, through a collaboration with a group of local women and those who identify as gender non-conforming, it is presented by Touchstones Rochdale.
Gut Feelings Meri Jaan responds to the local archives held at Touchstones by fore-grounding the voices of migrant communities within Rochdale's social history, voices which have historically been marginalised and misrepresented. This episode features Jasleen Kaur in conversation with Hettie, as well as collaborator and cinematographer Alina Akbar, and Touchstone's Lisa Allen.
The UP Podcast is presented by Hettie Judah and generously supported by Arts Council England. It was audio produced and directed by Arsalan Mohammad and creatively produced by UP Projects.
