Founder,
Lead-Mentor, The Artist's Ear
Madhulika Mohan is a conceptual artist, writer, and mentor based in Gurgaon, India. Trained in Contemporary Art Practices, Studio Arts, and Art Therapy across India, USA and Spain, her work spans food, video, writing, and installations exploring language and the human condition.
She’s exhibited in India, Spain, and Switzerland, with her work housed in the Library of Curiosity at Cambridge University. As a mentor, she draws from her own creative journey — offering thoughtful, one-on-one guidance that prioritizes listening, clarity, and conceptual depth. Her approach helps students not just apply, but truly arrive in their practice.

Why we started?
Because Creative Students Deserve Better Guidance
Most college consultants don’t understand creative work. Most art coaching centers focu on "production" of portfolio. TAE exists to bridge that gap — to offer creative, authentic, rigorous, emotionally intelligent, student-oriented support to students who think differently.
