Artist statement
Unawatuna II, is a recently discovered image from a Series of Photographs taken by the Artist in Sri Lanka early in 2019, some of which were Exhibited at Renata Maiblum Gallery, Copenhagen in May that year.

The images exist by themselves, without need for definitions or description and, with their tactile and lively texture, seem as paintings.
