Once Upon a Time
Once Upon a Time deepens the lore. Unfolding as the second chapter of Sandatharaka Abeysinghe’s underwater universe, the series delves into the myths and characters that inhabit this imagined world. Blurring the lines between the terrestrial and aquatic worlds, time and histories, the exhibition explores ideas of an existence that transcend the rigid categories of modernity.
Sandatharaka Abeysinghe has presented his works at India Art Fair, New Delhi (2025); Galle Literature Festival, Galle (2024); Japan International Watercolour Institute, Tokyo (2021); Yunnan Art University, Yunan (2022); and the 1st International Watercolour Biennale, Kuala Lumpur (2018). His work has also been featured in the Imago Mundi Book Project by the Benetton Foundation.
