Seema Kohli is a versatile artist who explores various art forms such as visual arts, performing arts, and poetry. She has exhibited her work extensively worldwide, with over 32 solo shows and more than 300 group shows. Kohli's artistic expression revolves around themes of beauty, sensuality, and spirituality. Her work celebrates the female form and its profound connection to the creative and destructive forces of the universe. She delves into the concept of 'Hiranayagarbha' or 'The Golden Womb,' seeking to create new artistic identities by reshaping objects and engaging in a dialogue between the past and the present through decay, hybridization, and transformation.

Kohli has created numerous large-scale murals, including those found in prominent locations such as the Supreme Court (New Delhi), Sardar Patel Bhawan (Patna, Bihar), Delhi and Mumbai International Airports, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Her artwork has been featured in notable events such as the Kochi-Muziris Biennale (2016), Venice Biennale of Art/Architecture (2015, 2016), ARCO (Madrid) (2008), Art Basel, and the India Art Fair (2010-2022), as well as the Asia Society HK, among others.
