Seema Kohli's stunning artwork celebrates cosmic balance and spiritual connection, depicting the "Kurma Avatar" of Vishnu. The rich workmanship, brilliant hues, and flowing patterns represent a harmonic dance between heavenly feminine and male forces. This painting captures the endless dance of creation and destruction, as shown by the golden halo and dynamic waves around the figurines, implying oceanic churning. Kohli's art draws inspiration from mythology, the holy feminine and transports viewers to a world of oneness, calm, and transcendence.
