Samsara and Metamorphosis: The Mystical World of Seema Kohli
Pacific Art League, Palo Alto, California

Seema Kohli
Moon Myths in Seema Kohli’s practice emerges from her engagement with mythology, time, and cosmic cycles. The moon appears in her works not only as a celestial body but as a symbolic presence connected with memory, emotion, and the passage of time. Drawing from Indian cosmology, particularly the idea of the nakshatras, the movement of the moon becomes a way of understanding cyclical time rather than linear time, a recurring idea in her larger body of work.
The moon is also closely associated with the feminine principle in Kohli’s visual language, reflecting inner worlds, intuition, desire, longing, and transformation. Much like the female figures that inhabit her works, the moon carries within it the idea of creation, dissolution, and renewal. Its waxing and waning become metaphors for change, continuity, and the shifting nature of existence.
Kohli brings together mythology, cosmology, and personal symbolism, where celestial forms, human figures, animals, and plant life often coexist within the same visual universe. The moon becomes a silent witness and participant in these narratives, suggesting that human life, nature, and the cosmos are deeply interconnected and constantly in motion.
