“Art is not what you see, but what you make others see! “

Art is that knock you hear from your soul and answer it. It has the power to transform, illuminate, motivate, educate and inspire. It is the most intense form of individualism the world has known. A work of an art is a scream of freedom. It enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time. It is the only salvation from the horror of existence, washing away from our souls the dust of everyday life.  Nishka Mehta, is one such young artistic wizard creating magic across spaces and adding color to life. She dips the brush in her own soul and paints her own personality into pictures.
