Seema Kohli's Artistic Journey Explored in Delhi Exhibitions
Seema Kohli, a famous artist, is showing her art in two big exhibitions in Delhi.
One is called 'Bodies of Sky, Bodies of Earth' and talks about how our bodies hold stories and memories.
The other, 'With Her Hair Running Wild,' is about wild goddesses and passionate gods.
Seema has been making art for over 40 years and her work is inspired by her father's stories, her family's history, and different spiritual and philosophical ideas.
She uses many different materials like paint, textiles, and photographs to tell her stories.
Her art is a way for her to connect with herself, her family, and the world around her.
Two concurrent solo exhibitions by Seema Kohli at Triveni Kala Sangam in Delhi, presented by Gallerie Nvya.
Exhibitions explore themes of the body as an archive and stories of undomesticated goddesses and gods.

Her artistic journey began in childhood, inspired by her parents introducing her to art and color.
Exhibitions feature over 40 years of her art practice, including multimedia components and personal narratives.
