Arjuna Gunarathne
Mother and Children , 2024The content solitude that emerges in the company of loved ones comes through in Gunarathne’s family portraits. His loved ones float in space untethered to the reality outside, like figures in the tradition of East Asian art. Even in their preoccupations, they seek comfort in each other's presence and are held close to each other by an invisible twine. This very private world becomes visible to us through a patchwork of translucent, coloured candy wrappers also reminiscent of the warmth and comfort of patterned quilts.

Anupa Perera
White On White I, 2019Existing in a realm far removed from the tactile reality of the surroundings, Anupa Perera’s still-life paintings are whimsically insidious while occasionally serving as snapshots of romanticised pathos. The mise-en-scène created by Perera offers insight into the peculiar lens through which the artist views the world. His practice is rooted in attempts to capture mundane items while emphasising the correlation between light, composition, and colour. However, in Perera’s work, these quotidian objects become narrative devices that subtly essay his observations of the everyday.

Jagath Weerasinghe
Under the Dark Sky 13, 2023The series Under the Dark Sky poignantly captures the uncertain and unsettling atmosphere that emerged in the wake of the pandemic. The works in this series reflect not only the social and economic upheavals caused by COVID-19, but also other globally destabilizing forces; the political uprising in Sri Lanka during the economic crisis and the war in Gaza. The series imagines a future in which the people’s struggle causes disruption to the status quo, disrupting existing power structures. -

Ruwan Prasanna’s uplifting palette captures the buoyant mood evoked by the passing wind as it jostles playfully in Kaze No Iro. The work is a joyous celebration of the transient phenomenon of nature that makes itself visible as it ruffles tree leaves into wakefulness and stirs up dust to cause a commotion.

Anushiya Sundaralingam’s works are grounded in a deeply personal experience of leaving behind her homeland amidst the political instability in Sri Lanka. Anushiya’s training as a printmaker seeps into her practice, as she shifts between collage, photography and painting.
