ABOUT SPICYEDITIONS
The story behind the prints.
Padmasana — where it starts and ends
MEET MEERA
Born in Northwest London to a Gujarati family, I grew up between two ideas of the same culture: the warmth, colour and drama I knew from home, and the cooler, quieter version the West tended to prefer. My family moved to Australia in the late 80s, but I spent school holidays with my grandparents in London.
Yoga was always around — less a workout, more a way of moving through the day. When I came back to the UK for a career in marketing, I started practising properly. I loved the studios. I did not love the walls: pale figures on oat-coloured paper, all the heat politely removed.
So I made the posters I wanted to hang. Every asana under a saffron sky, grounded by deep wine line work, named in English and Sanskrit. Warrior II is also Virabhadrasana II. The whole series shares one palette, so any three prints hang together as a flow.
If your practice is calm but you'd still like your walls to have a pulse, these are for you.
From the journal
I write the SpicyEditions journal too — yoga for real people, the stories behind the poses, and how to live with bold art on the wall.
