Seema Kohli

Seema Kohli (b.1960) was born in New Delhi. Her practice includes filmmaking, installations, paintings, and performance, and is centred around feminine beauty, power, sensuality, and spirituality.  She is celebrated for her murals at Delhi International Airport and Mumbai Airport, and her award-winning video work Swayamsiddha - Myth, Mind and Movement.

 Kohli presents the feminine as both nurturer and protector. She draws on mythology, on various artistic idioms and often projects the woman as the protagonist in her narrative.

She is a recipient of the Lalit Kala Akademi Award and the Gold Award at the Florence Biennale. She lives and works in New Delhi.
