Pune, 11th June 2026: Pune-based artist Meghna Menon, known for her distinctive hand-drawn illustrations and as the founder of the wearable art brand Zenscrawl, has been featured at the Museum of Cartoon Art at Savitribai Phule Pune University.

The museum, curated by renowned cartoonist and visual storyteller Suraj Sriram (Eskay), celebrates the rich and evolving world of cartoons, illustration, and visual storytelling. Meghna’s original illustrations are among the works on display, placing her alongside artists who have contributed to shaping contemporary visual culture.

Characterized by intricate line work, symbolic motifs, and imaginative storytelling, Meghna’s illustrations blur the boundaries between fine art, doodling, and narrative expression. Over the years, her artwork has developed a distinctive visual language that explores themes of culture, music, travel, humanity, and personal reflection.

“I’ve always believed that drawing is a way of making sense of the world,” says Meghna Menon. “To see my illustrations displayed in a space dedicated to the art of visual storytelling is both humbling and deeply meaningful.”

While many know Meghna as the founder of Zenscrawl, a brand that translates original artwork into clothing, accessories, and lifestyle products, her artistic journey began with pen and paper. The inclusion of her illustrations in the Museum of Cartoon Art recognizes the artwork itself and its contribution to contemporary illustration.

The Museum of Cartoon Art serves as an important cultural destination for artists, students, researchers, and art enthusiasts, offering visitors an opportunity to engage with the diverse forms and possibilities of visual storytelling. Curated with passion and vision by Suraj Sriram (Eskay), the museum stands as a testament to the power of illustration as both art and communication.
