Without Shape Without Form Editor

Koi is the name given to spiritual teachers of Sikhism. Each teacher is referred to simply as ‘Koi’ (which literally means ‘Someone’) as they do not take on the role for recognition, fame or personal gain. Kois perform ‘selfless service’ (Seva) for the congregation and wider community (Sangat), for the betterment of humanity. Kois share the teachings of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji wherever they go, including at Guru Maneyo Granth Gurdwara. Without Shape Without Form (WSWF) is an arts organisation conceived for interaction and contemplation. Bringing Sikh history, culture and spirituality to the contemporary context, WSWF goes beyond cultural, racial and religious boundaries to encourage curiosity about the journey of the mind and how this can positively affect people’s lives. Born in Amritsar, India, and now based in Toronto, Canada, Kanwar Singh is a world-renowned Sikh artist. His work depicts quintessential moments in Sikh history which have shaped a dynamic Sikh community through its nascent beginnings in medieval Punjab to its present political and spiritual standing in the world today.
