About Moksh Art Gallery
Moksh operates as a gallery-led art curation and commissioning practice built on sustained relationships with artists and collectors. It is guided by the belief that living with art should feel personal, considered, and responsive to context.
Over time, the gallery has evolved from a traditional brick-and-mortar model into a more focused, consultative space. Today, clients engage directly with the founders in an environment centred on dialogue rather than display. Each engagement begins with understanding individual sensibilities and spatial requirements — whether through existing works or new commissions — ensuring that every selection is shaped with care and clarity.
The Founders
Deepak Mehta
Founder
Deepak’s engagement with art began out of genuine curiosity. Regular visits to exhibitions and conversations with artists and curators gradually deepened his understanding of the contemporary art landscape, leading him to build a personal collection shaped by instinct and long-term perspective.
In 2007, as interest in contemporary art in Mumbai was steadily growing, he recognised a clear gap. Established galleries largely focused on senior names and often felt inaccessible to first-time collectors, while younger artists had limited platforms for visibility. Moksh Art Gallery was founded in Kala Ghoda — Mumbai’s historic art precinct — to bridge this divide, creating an approachable space for new collectors while offering meaningful opportunities to early-career artists.
Meghna Mehta
Co-Founder & Curator
Meghna’s sensibility towards art was shaped early on through close exposure to her father’s acquisitions and the stories that accompanied them. While building a 12-year career in financial services — culminating in a leadership role at J.P. Morgan Asset Management — she remained closely connected to the gallery, spending time within the space long before formally joining the practice.
In 2016, she made a deliberate transition into Moksh, bringing with her operational discipline and a global outlook shaped by travel and museum exposure. Since then, she has reshaped the gallery from a display-led format to one that responds directly to individual client requirements — sourcing and presenting works based on context rather than limiting selections to existing inventory. This client-focused way of working now defines the gallery’s direction.
