Speaking Art!
India’s famous canvas queen Pratiksha Apurv is not a new name to art lovers. This National award winner is famous in two ways – one for being the darling niece of spiritual guru Osho and the other as the most prolific canvas artist who has the maximum media representation for her contribution to art and spirituality.

A study of her art is in itself a guide to spiritual interpretation and what’s more, Pratiksha’s works and her construal of them has been recently published as a sleek coffee table book titled The Mystic and Her Colours.

Since 2011, Pratiksha has been a regular contributor to a weekly spiritual newspaper published by a renowned media house which has now been collated into this unique coffee table book combining two genres, writing and paintings in a sense defines her journey and all the experiences of listening to the existence.

“When you have Osho’s vision as companion, the journey is bound to be childlike, absolutely incomparable joy. It was such a delight to have world-renowned filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj and playback singer Rekha Bhardwaj for launch of the book in Mumbai,” reveals Pratiksha.

Vishal Bhardwaj paying glowing tributes to this brilliant addition to ‘flaunt-me’ genre of publication, said, “I never knew that spirituality can be painted. I always thought that spirituality was an inherent expression. To give such a tone to spirituality that cannot be expressed in words is very special. The silence that comes out can only be felt and not expressed.”

He further added, “Music too, I think, is on step short of silence. In fact, all the fine arts – music, painting and poetry – all lead us to silence, into nothingness, and this book is representative of all that. It is poetic, it is musical and it is art or painting on the surface – a combination of all three.”
