Celebrating the promise of infinite adventure and discovery, in boats.
In this Suite, Kingsley Gunathilaka’s main piece decorates the living room. His creation depicts the various textures and colours of the old paddle boats or Pãru, to memorialise what it felt like to be in one floating on a village reservoir.
In the rest of the Suite, Dominic Sansoni’s photographs portray the craft and the techniques of making a Pãru. Much of this is not existent today. The photographs have been taken over a period of some 20 years bringing back memories of a bygone era.
‘Pillars of Salt’, which is seen decorating the wall behind the bed is a work by Barefoot, using the inspiration of land and seascapes of Sri Lanka in abstract geometry with vivid colour. This feature was woven for Bentota Beach by local artists and craftsmen.
The art within the room is with 100% locally sourced material and craftsmanship.
