EXHIBITION OVERVIEW
PRIMORDIAL PULSE
Creator–Creation Continuum
Neena Mand
Art2Muse Gallery, Woollahra
13–26 January 2026, Opening event, 17 Jan 2026, 12.00 – 4.00 pm
Primordial Pulse is a solo exhibition by Sydney-based artist and academic Neena Mand, presenting abstract paintings that explore creation as a dynamic, ongoing process. Neena is a storyteller of space and spirit whose evolving practice moves fluidly between cultural memory, intuition, and universal inquiry.
Developed through a restrained visual language, the works balance geometric structure with fluid movement. Using black, white, and gold, Neena evokes depth, awareness, and emergence, allowing forms to appear and dissolve across the surface.
The Primordial Pulse series traces creation as a continuum – a vibration moving from formlessness to form. Neena invites the viewer to pause, reflect, and enter this continuum – to feel the vibration of creation, to encounter the spark that arises between rasa and form, and to experience the living dialogue between creator, creation, and observer.
ARTIST BIO
Dr Harpreet (Neena) Mand practicing as Neena atMA is a Sydney-based artist and academic whose practice approaches abstraction as a philosophical and spatial inquiry. Drawing on architectural thinking and cross-cultural aesthetic traditions, her work reflects on how we relate to the world, inviting a more attentive, and dialogic engagement.
Mand holds a PhD and has taught architectural design at Australian universities. Her research into modern constructions of identity continues to shape her art practice that moves between structure and intuition.
The Unfolding Continuum is the overarching framework of her art practice – an everevolving extension of abstraction, her work arises from a desire to move beyond declarative meaning toward the subtle logic of suggestion, evocation, and resonance. To articulate this vision, Neena has developed an aesthetic and conceptual framework called Dhvanic Abstraction. Rooted in the ancient Indian aesthetic principle of dhvani – the art of suggestion – extending this idea into a visual and spatial practice that engages abstraction, architecture, and cross-cultural philosophy.
