Born in Delhi, INDIA 1969. Since childhood, varied forms, colors, patterns and all the intricacies of nature had inspired her. She preferred to stay in her own self with the visions which were often the glimpses from the subconscious and the unconscious mind. She loved to dwell in

The artist says: "For me Painting is like Flowering, not making. The unknown world unfolds itself."
A Review from OSHO WORLD:
Bindu Popli has been inspired by Osho’s meditation and thought in the last few years. This brought about an evolutionary progression in her and brims over in her art – her painting. Glimpses of these mystical experiences in the form of colours, shapes, and circles are the highlight of her present work. She uses material colours to subtly portray the ethereal, the formless form, and the subliminal, and does so in a manner that the line between conscious art and unconscious expression of the soul artistically dissolve.
Antaryatra is an effort to convey and express the vision of our enlightened master on an expansive palette through the sensitive brush strokes of a painter who has delved deep in the mysteries of Samadhi.
