Mohini Kaur

Rooted in ritual and interior landscapes of ancestral wisdom, Mohini Kaur explores how knowledge is carried through the body, the land, and inherited memory. Drawing from the sensorial dimensions of her cultural lineage, she engages elemental motifs such as water, seed, and vessel—forms that echo devotional and cyclical relationships with nature.

Paint functions as a language within her practice: a medium through which gestures, materials, and intuition allow submerged narratives to surface. Working with fluid pigments and organic matter such as ash and charcoal, Mohini Kaur builds surfaces that hold traces of process, time, and touch. These works operate as sites of encounter between the visible and the invisible, where personal memory interlaces with collective histories.

Recent explorations consider what Mohini Kaur refers to as the “Ancestral Long Body”—a way of understanding the self as extended across generations and landscapes. Through this lens, her work reflects on continuity, inheritance, and the possibility of remembering oneself as part of a larger ecological and ancestral continuum.
