I didn't have cultural access to Turner Prize - Sikh winner
Jasleen Kaur, an artist celebrating the Scottish Sikh community, has won this year's Turner Prize.
The 38-year-old won the award for her Alter Altar exhibition at Glasgow’s contemporary arts venue Tramway.
The exhibition featured a vintage Ford Escort, worship bells and Irn-Bru.
The judges noted the "considered way in which she weaves together the personal, political and spiritual in her exhibition".
She was presented with the £25,000 prize by actor James Norton at Tate Britain on Tuesday evening.
She beat fellow shortlisted nominees Pio Abad, Claudette Johnson and Delaine Le Bas.
Kaur said she wasn't aware of the Turner Prize while growing up, saying she didn't have the "cultural access".
She said: "I have had so many messages today from people from the local Sikh community and from folk that I grew up with.”
