Galerie-P6-Berlin is pleased to present The Flow of Being, a solo exhibition of works by New Delhi-based Indian artist Sumit Mehndiratta. The exhibition will be on view from October 11 – November 20, 2025, in the gallery and online via Artsy. The show will open with a Vernissage on October 10, 18:00–21:00 at the Galerie P6 private salon at Gossowstrasse 6, 10777 Berlin.

Mehndiratta’s practice is inspired by the ever-present flow of energy—the vital force that animates existence. In his work, potential transforms into kinetic energy, movement into creation. Everything in existence is in flux, constantly shifting and reshaping, and his paintings seize this rhythm through dynamic gestures and evolving techniques.

From dripping, dragging, spreading, and pulling paint across the surface, Mehndiratta mirrors the fluidity of energy itself—playful yet profound. His process begins in the subconscious, gathers strength in thought, and pours outward through his body like a waterfall, materializing in movement. Describing himself as an action painter, he develops patterns through the very energy of his gestures. When tools do not exist to realize his vision, he invents new ones—extending the flow of creativity into the act of making itself.

The resulting works pulse with vitality - their large, sweeping strokes echoing a dance between artist and surface. His vibrant palette, deeply rooted in the colors of his Indian heritage, resonates with cultural symbolism as well as personal meaning. For Mehndiratta, color functions as both language and lifeline—an expression of movement, existential inquiry, and resilience shaped in part by childhood experiences.

Underlying the artist’s practice is the principle that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred—from force to force, vessel to vessel. This universal rhythm, from the swing of a pendulum to the orbit of planets, is given visual form in The Flow of Being. Through each gesture, Mehndiratta captures not only the materiality of paint but also the cosmic continuity of energy itself.
