The emotional terrain of isolation finds physical embodiment in Manaram Gamage’s Depths of Silence, rendered with a raw immediacy and sensitive engagement with the artist’s chosen materials. The perseverance of the sculptor's hand clashes with the natural resistance of his chosen materials in Gamage’s approach to sculpture. In this tension, guided by touch and instinct, the artist traces the psychological contours of isolation as they are transposed onto the human body. The figure in Gamage’s sculptures — seemingly void of gender and poised in states of contemplation stands as a recurring motif, not as an idealized form but as a vessel moulded and eroded by lived experience. Departing from the anatomical precision of classical sculpture tradition, the artist favours the evocative potential of the body, manifesting internal states through his alterations.
