Paradise Road Galleries unveils “My Journey,” a poignant exhibition by artist Dileepa Jeewantha.

This captivating series offers a deeply personal reflection on a transformative three-day experience within a Sri Lankan prison, providing viewers with a unique lens into the complexities of the human condition and a redefined perception of self.

In “My Journey,” Jeewantha uses art to explore and document the lives of the prisoners he encountered. Through a series of striking portraits, he captures the inner struggles of his subjects with his distinctive blend of whimsy and spontaneity, combined with skillful execution. His empathetic approach not only showcases their vulnerabilities but also highlights their dignity and emotional depth, prompting viewers to look beyond the surface.

The exhibition invites audiences to immerse themselves in these intimate portrayals, sparking conversations about humanity, resilience, and empathy. Jeewantha’s work serves as a reminder of the shared experiences that connect us all, regardless of background or circumstance.

Art enthusiasts and community members were invited to join an exclusive preview of the exhibition last Friday. ‘My Journey’ will be on display until December 11, welcoming visitors daily from 10 am to midnight at Paradise Road Galleries
