UTMT ART EXHIBITIONS

Engaging with the local and the global community of versatile artists and designers, Under the Mango Tree stays committed to the timeless trends of art and design through our art exhibitions in a wide range of disciplines such as art, photography and design. Combining a variety of artisitc influences together along with international literature and music, we regularly assert

on creativity as a continous process of learning and cultural exchange. Experimenting beyond the art + design exhibitions, we develop workshops and seminars that also serve as a platform for exchanging, fostering and enriching the creative process through special events. UTMT SHOP

Since 2011, the art gallery also established its own UTMT SHOP. Specializing in organic and natural textiles from India, we continuously serve two purposes with this engagement: preservation and sustainability for artisans in the textile industry in India. The striking selection of self designed, handwoven, handprinted or handembroidered shawls as well as the handpicked, handmade books, all from India, is what we proudly present at Under the Mango Tree Shop. And we are not only thrilled about the exposure for our artisans from India, but also to be able to support this cause with our performance.

Introduction to Creative Writing
Gurmeet Singh

Two Sundays isn’t long enough to write a book, but it’s enough to change how you read your own sentences. That’s what this workshop is for.

We’ll spend the time close to the page: reading a few short pieces together and taking them apart to see how they work, trying some writing prompts to get something new onto paper, and looking closely at each other’s drafts. You’ll leave with a handcrafted set of pages, sharper tools you can keep using, and a clearer sense of what your writing is trying to do.

Come with a draft in progress or with nothing at all. Both are a fine place to start.

Over the two sessions we’ll look at:

✦ Point of view
✦ Character
✦ Setting
✦ Scene and summary
✦ Style
✦ Cutting and revising

All levels welcome · Taught in English

VENUE: Merseburgerstrasse 14, 10823 Berlin
REGISTRATION OPEN: [email protected] / [email protected]

VERNISSAGE I Everything, Everywhere
MINH KHA LE minhkha

Artist is present

The gallery Under The Mango Tree is proud to present Minh Kha Le’s (*1999) first solo exhibition in Berlin. After graduating in July 2026 from the Berlin University of the Arts, her range of works, from paintings to unique vernis mous on sheer muslin textile, will be presented under the title Everything, Everywhere. The exhibition investigates the relationship between humans and nature, using the landscape as a metaphorical canvas for the interconnectedness of the mental and the material.
Moving between figuration and abstraction, Minh Kha Le’s paintings create spaces in which bodies, landscapes, plants, animals and other forms of life continuously emerge and dissolve into one another. Rather than presenting nature as something separate from the human, her works imagine a world in which boundaries between species, bodies and environments remain fluid. This interconnectedness extends to questions of identity, challenging fixed categories and inviting a more relational understanding of the self and its surroundings.

The expansive triptych-Tomorrow’s Memories- draw the viewer into a constantly shifting landscape in which recognisable forms coexist with abstract gestures and intense fields of colour. Figures appear and disappear within the surrounding environment, creating a visual language that moves between the intimate and the planetary, the figurative and the abstract. There is lot to discover!
Look forward to see you.

What remains in place
PEGAH KESHMIRSHEKAN
Pegah Keshmirshekan پگاه کشمیرشکن

In her textile imprints, Keshmirshekan experiments with the form and depiction of flowers, searching for
that diffusive territory of identity that can only be grasped upon stepping foot on it. This is a place that cannot be limited to the Crown Imperial (Fritillaria imperialis) and the Laleh-ye Ashk, but which can encompass them both. This territory closely resonates with the understanding of the geography of selves and the bridge metaphor of Mexican feminist thinker Gloria Anzaldua: ‚Caminante, no hay puentes, se hacen puentes al andar‘ (‚Traveler, there are no bridges, you make them as you walk‘). Each textile surface, dyed by the artist, becomes a tender surface, embedded with things that cannot be fully held in place, whether geographically,
ecologically or emotionally. These surfaces bridge viewers to places they may not have encountered before.

Each new landscape created with patterns cut from these treated textiles moves beyond mental fantasy to a heartfelt negotiation of the unpredictable future displacement of the flowers in the Zagros region.
The process behind each piece of work also points towards that search, discovery and acknowledgement.

WHAT REMAINS IN PLACE
till 02.08.26

The most fundamental question of Pegah Keshmirshekan´s Pegah Keshmirshekan پگاه کشمیرشکن research based work is that of belonging.

Laleh-ye Ashk ( Crown Imperial) grows on the border between different geographical and historical plains, such as Mesopotamia and Persia, the pre-Islamic and the Islamic eras, the imperial and the colloquial, tradition and progress, nativity and cultivation, and roots and circulation. This plant projects a double consciousness, implying a significant alteration in meaning between insisting on a fixed identity, which is a fiction, and consciously claiming stories that complete the puzzle of identity.

Employing this double consciousness, Keshmirshekan began her new series by investigating the herbarium data of the flower, which already carries the stigma of Western botanical naming, classification and categorisation systems in its species name. These collections of plant samples are preserved for long-term study and are usually in the form of dried and pressed plants mounted on paper. They help scientists with plant identification and research and provide historical records of Earth’s biodiversity and conservation. However, as many historians know, the best-kept secret about any archive is what you don‘t find. The lived histories, feelings, confusions and projections of these communities of selves can’t be categorised or archived. The loss of a homeland, a sense of being ungrounded or a search for roots cannot be archived either. Keshmirshekan created her templates using images of flowers picked from the Zagros mountains alongside herbarium images. She keeps returning to the contradiction between the archived flower and the endangered flower in its natural habitat. Archiving a flower won‘t save it from the dangers of extinction. -

Moroccan Songs is the current solo program by Moroccan-Berlin-based pianist Amine Mesnaoui. Drawing upon traditional Moroccan melodies, Andalusian influences, and songs from the early 20th century, Mesnaoui develops a personal musical language for solo piano—minimalist, atmospheric, and characterized by great rhythmic subtlety.
The music navigates the interplay between memory, variation, and improvisation. Through repetition, use of space, and harmonic layering, intense musical miniatures emerge—pieces imbued with a quiet tension and poetic depth.
The program has been presented at various venues and festivals, including Piano City Milano, events in Istanbul and Palermo, and the Toca'm Piano Festival in Spain.

Artist statement
“The work begins to function as unstable herbaria of an imagined homeland. A herbarium is a practice of preserving plants by pressing and classifying them, removing them from their natural environment in order to stabilise and archive them. It promises preservation, the possibility of holding what is fragile in place. Yet extinction and diaspora complicate this promise. The textile works become a record of a plant that cannot be fully held in place, whether geographically, ecologically or emotionally.” – Pegah Keshmirshekan, 2026

AMINE MESNAOUI

*Moroccan Songs* is the current solo program by Moroccan-Berlin pianist Amine Mesnaoui. Drawing on traditional Moroccan melodies, Andalusian influences, and songs from the early 20th century, Mesnaoui develops a personal sonic language for solo piano—one that is stripped-back, atmospheric, and characterized by great rhythmic subtlety.

The music moves between memory, variation, and improvisation. Through repetition, space, and harmonic density, intense musical miniatures emerge, imbued with quiet tension and poetic depth.

The program has been presented at events including Piano City Milano, as well as in Istanbul, Palermo, and at the Toca’m Piano Festival in Spain.
