Jasnoor Kaur: The Filmmaker On The Rise


To bear witness is to commemorate the moments, the lived experiences, that make a person unique. The idiosyncrasies we can overlook are the very things this artist has beautifully portrayed, amplified, and celebrated. Jasnoor Kaur, is an Asian Filmmaker, Creative  Producer and Editor who is doing an excellent job at sharing the human experience and its many complexities.

I was recently given the privilege to sit down with Jasnoor to understand her and her works better and it was truly a blessing. Jasnoor is what I like to call a “jack and master of all trades” while balancing the responsibilities of each with poise and grace.

Jasnoor shared with me many beautiful projects she's had a hand in (that I will share with you soon), but today I wanted to highlight one in particular, "Our Canvas". “Our Canvas is a documentary that highlights two iconic artists from Pittsburgh, Johno Prascak and  Maria DeSimone whose works have become part of the city’s cultural fabric."

In Frame:

The gifted Maria DeSimone

"Our Canvas" is a must-see documentary for any and everyone who is inspired and moved by artists, and a testament to the brilliance of Jasnoor Kaur. 

Although Jasnoor is proud of the work she's done, it means more to her to be an intermediary between two worlds. She believes it is less about her, and more about the people.

Believe me, there is more to Jasnoor where that came from!
