‘This tranquil realm is the setting of artist Shivani Khoshia’s paintings. Translucent, childlike faces course through canvases like shooting stars, weaving through channels of soft colour, evoking the fluidity of sea and sky. Butterflies and botanical life adorn the cosmic landscape. Each element summons an essence of an intangible and irresistible realm, transmitted through Khoshia, who acts as an artistic translator for varied entities and planes of existence.’ - Melody Phelan-Clark in ‘Star Protected: Shivani Khoshia, Spiritualism & Healing.’
