Len Bellinger : Recent Paintings and Works on Paper An online exclusive exhibition on ARTSY by M. David & Co. View exhibition here .

Digital image of traditional Indian miniature reworked by Nehal Devi Original: Krishna and His Family Admire a Solar Eclipse, Kangra school, India, 1710 - 1778;  from the Freer + Sackler Collection Jyeshtha Purnima, This full moon Give up your seeking. What you seek Is seeking you, In a way far beyond You or your seeking. Remember, when you see the Moon today Thousands who are seeing too. And in that seeing We are all connected. This full moon, knowing The isolation is an illusion, And in that knowing We are all connected. by Nehal Devi Nehal Devi is a yogini and an artist, who expresses herself through varied forms: painting, performance and moving/still images.

Her work focuses on I-I.
