-- Excerpt from an article on 28 January 2015 by JonaQuestArt.com covering the Art Rooms 2015 fair in London.
"...Abstract Art & Poems
My love for Abstract art led me to Room 108, I stepped into my odyssey, a kingdom of abstraction and poems created by Deepa Khanna Sobti. I asked Deepa what she thought about abstract art. We proceed to have a lengthy discussion on the idea that life is an abstraction in itself, the duality of separation and oneness, where she sees herself as Nothing and Everything. Deepa’s philosophical thread can be seen running through her works in abstract painting and poems, some of which I’ve included below.
"...Abstract Art & Poems
My love for Abstract art led me to Room 108, I stepped into my odyssey, a kingdom of abstraction and poems created by Deepa Khanna Sobti. I asked Deepa what she thought about abstract art.

Were You Ever Really Born?, It is fascinating to see that although no one has ever experienced their birth…They believe without question…That they were born…Even though it is widely accepted that experience is the basis for belief…Who ever experiences their birth?…Similarly no one ever experiences their death…Yet, our entire life is a story between these two inexperienced, blindly believed points…What if there was no birth and death?…Isn’t there only ever Life that is experienced?…Beginningless and Endless Life.

I felt completely at home, being surrounding by Deepa’s works and I like the idea of combining abstract art with poetry, as abstract art cannot be fully described by words alone, it has to be experienced in your conscious and sub conscious being. For me it is a sense, a feeling that envelopes me and connects me to the painting.
Deepa Khanna Sobti lives in Hong Kong and spent over a decade in the banking sector, which she gave up 14 years ago and has focused on her art and poetry full time since 2008. Her work has been short listed for the Art Gemini Award 2014. She donates 75% of the profits from the sales of her works to selected charities."
