Cinnamon Life, Colombo’s newest resort complex, recently featured artist Chathurika Jayani in its ‘Artist Spotlight’ series for her latest body of work, ‘Dream Paradise Odyssey.’ The ‘Artist Spotlight’ series, which highlights the talents of over 687 artists whose works are displayed throughout the Cinnamon Life property, reflects the organisation’s unwavering commitment to promoting Sri Lankan art and fostering the growth of the island’s creative industry.
Fresh off the debut of this new exhibition, The Sunday Morning Brunch sat down with Jayani for a chat on her art and what inspired her. Known best for her innovative use of materials and exploration of themes such as urbanisation, industrialisation, and female resilience, Jayani’s ‘Dream Paradise Odyssey’ exhibition is a deeply personal and evocative journey that resonates with audiences on multiple levels.
Being part of the Cinnamon Life ‘Artist Spotlight’ is a moment of pride for Jayani. “It has been a truly remarkable milestone in my artistic journey,” she shared, adding: “It was an incredible opportunity to connect with art enthusiasts and potential buyers. The exhibition itself was breathtaking, with the paintings displayed in such an elegant and impactful manner.”
