‘Uncertainty II’ by Jayantha Pushpakumara at Paradise Road Galleries

An exhibition titled ‘Uncertainty II’ by Jayantha Pushpakumara is being held at Paradise Road Galleries from 19 September to 21 October. Explaining his work, the artists said: “I use woodcuts, mixed media and monotype techniques in my practice. The colour palette of brown, black, white and red represents human emotions while the textural surface of the woodcut printmaking creates tactile nature to my body of work. My imagery is inspired by the uncertainty of human existence, the distraction caused by globalisation, and capitalism. These themes are further inspired by the current political climate in our country.”
