Meena Sansalwal, born in 1971, received her graduation as well as post graduation degree in painting from Delhi college of Art in the year 1994 and 1997 respectively. Meena strongly believes that there is an innate vital sense that urges her to pain
She is greatly inspired to channel her imagination by employing bright colours and patterns with themes drawn from culture and popular illustration-like imagery.
Her vibrant, intuitive practice draws on Indian cultural motifs, folk traditions, and popular illustration styles. Her richly patterned, symbolic works blend playfulness with emotional depth, creating fantastical yet familiar worlds. Using vivid colours and stylised forms, she explores imagination, memory, and the subconscious.
Rooted in traditional craft yet contemporary in tone, her paintings reflect an ongoing dialogue between inner narrative and cultural memory. Meena’s work explores the union of nature and the universe as a source of energy, vibration, and rhythm - mirroring the organic flow of time and space. Through polymorphic and biomorphic forms, she expresses patterns of the subconscious mind using symmetry, abstraction, repetition, and reflection.
Her practice symbolizes a portal into the eternal garden of the mind - where natural elements, dreamscapes, and imagined forms converge. Drawing from meditation, fantasy, and inner landscapes, her art becomes a cathartic process, revealing the interconnectedness of body, mind, and soul.
