Gayan Hemarathne is an artist based in Sri Lanka whose paintings have been exhibited nationally. He was born in the ancient city of Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka. In the series of paintings titled "Nuwarakalaviya,", the artist continues his investigation of the subjects of Mahavamsa’s time gaps with the Anuradhapura period. Most of the paintings explore Buddhist philosophy and archaeological contexts. The artist uses his practice to strengthen his spiritual consciousness. In addition, Gayan's artistic practice is also influenced by abstractionism. He favors the medium of acrylic on canvas in the creation of his conceptually based pieces.
