With the supervision of Lauren Wilson, Assistant Professor at the University of South Carolina and Jayampathi Guruge, Artistic Director of SpaceEka Artists' Residency the participants delved into multiple realms of practices allowing them to extend their knowledge and capacities within their respective creative disciplines. These practices also included physical training, Kalaripayattu and movement exploration with Pathum Dharmarthna
This phase of the residency came along as a collaborative exploration of following artists where they optimally utilized this time to explore within their respective practices while supporting one another as a community. Nuwan Gunawardane, Chanaka Kankanamge, Arjuna Dissanayake, Ruwan Vijalamage, Pathum Dharmarthna, Thilina De Silva, Shalini Wanninayaka, Nethma Mettananda, Chamith Perera and Amila Keerthi Bandara came together as the participants of this initiative. Furthermore, the participants were also joined by other renowned artists such as Veteran artist Sunil Shilpadipathi, Isuru Kumarasinghe and Sara Mikolai who shared their expertise and extended their support towards the activities of the residency. With the gained experiences and insights the participants of phase 03 proceeded into bringing multiple productions into life in fields of performance, self-narration, photography, cinematography, eco-musicology, dance, vocals, costume design and fashion photography.
