Rupi Kaur’s mixed cultural upbringing as a daughter of Indian immigrants shaped her career significantly. Growing up in Canada, she navigated between her South Asian heritage and Western society, influencing her themes of identity, feminism, and resilience. Her struggles with cultural expectations and personal experiences of trauma resonate in her poetry, which speaks to a broader audience seeking connection and understanding. Kaur’s ability to articulate these challenges through visual poetry has made her a distinctive voice in contemporary literature.
