SFG’s vision extends beyond its walls with continued participation in international art fairs across Asia and collaborations with galleries and institutions globally. Saskia Fernando Gallery was established in February 2009 in Colombo, Sri Lanka. The gallery expanded in December 2013 to a space where it now stands as the largest contemporary art gallery in the island, housing two exhibition spaces and a private viewing gallery of over 300 works. Artists represented are either Sri Lankan by nationality or have a connection with the local art scene. In addition to presenting exhibitions monthly in the Colombo space, the gallery has collaborated on exhibitions internationally in London, Dubai and Singapore. Saskia Fernando Gallery has succeeded as the first gallery to professionalize the Sri Lankan contemporary art scene and take the industry forward in marking it’s place as a considerable player in the South Asian art movement. The gallery aims to present two exhibitions per month and continues with international collaborations and projects annually. Our represented artists include the leading established as well as up-and-coming artists in Sri Lanka today.

Celebrating Arjuna Gunarathne on his birthday!

Arjuna Gunarathne’s figurative, expressionistic paintings often depict lonely, solitary characters in pensive poses, dislocated in some way, surrounded by intricate patterns that suggest their inner state. His landscapes too transform familiar scenes – Hampstead Heath or Charing Cross station – into a riots of tempestuous, charged movement and colour, surfaces worked intensely. With their open-ended, dreamlike narrative, they showcase Gunarathne’s unique ability to blend global art history with own personal, intimate experiences.” - The Wick, 2025

Congratulations Chudamani Clowes and Hema Shironi on being featured at MOOL

Curated by art historian, Shaleen Wadhwana , MOOL brings together twenty artists, to examine how personal memory, family histories and shared cultural inheritances shape our understanding of home. Organised across four thematic sections: Family Inherited & Chosen, Emotional Cartography, The Body and its Object Biographies, and Home in Script; the exhibition explores how photographs, landscapes, textiles, language, domestic objects and inherited traditions continue to shape identities across generations and geographies, positioning the personal archives of the artists as a record of collective South Asian history, and what continues to connect us.

The exhibition was presented at Bikaner House from 05 - 13 August, and will continue at Exhibit 320 until 10 September 2026.

The human figure remains central to Manaram Gamage’s practice, yet in ‘Mirages of Our Dreams’, the body is no longer a vessel for interior states, but a site of pressure and constraint.

Through the collision between steel and concrete, Manaram Gamage reimagines monumental figures of antiquity within the material realities of the present. Their industrial nature raises an inconvenient question: In an urban world where systems of infrastructure, labour and social organisation constantly shape our reality, how much autonomy does the body truly possess?

Upcoming : Mirages of Our Dreams by Manaram Gamage

In Manaram Gamage's upcoming solo exhibition, the human figure transforms from a vessel that illustrates interior states, to a site of pressure and constraint. Reimagining monumental figures of antiquity through material realities of the present, Gamage examines the visible and invisible structures that have continued to shape our reality. Through the material collision between steel, and cement, the physical form gradually becomes an investigation into the structures that determine how bodies can exist, move and be seen.

Manaram Gamage (b.1997, Galle, Lives and Works in Pannipitiya) explores his inner world through the visual medium, using the solitary human figure as a central motif to delve into introspection and the search for meaning. Gamage holds a BVA (Hons) in Visual and Performing Arts from the University of Visual and Performing Arts, Colombo (2022). He has presented solo exhibitions at Paradise Road Galleries, Colombo, and his works are in important private collections, including the Udayshanth Fernando Collection and Peter Harris Collection.
