Kumkum champions his Srilankan heritage and bridges the gap between traditional art and contemporary forms with ease.
Kumkum was born in Sri Lanka. As a son of an antique collector, collecting curiosities ran in his blood. For as long as memory serves, Kumkum has been a collector; of stones, spoons, statues, masks, and other marvels and treasures. Thousands of years of Sri Lankan culture inform Kumkum’s art, from ornate temple paintings to folktales of portals that connect us to a vast underworld of gods, giants and demons.
He champions this inspiration from heritage by bridging art and design with his deep appreciation for ancient and traditional forms. From his home in Vietnam, Kumkum scours the streets for materials—patterns, shapes and colours— to reanimate into art.

Door Detail
Charlotte Seux is a French-American artist currently living in London. Her work with sculpture, language, and video explores and confronts her relationship to power and systems that control and regulate bodies.
Her work illuminates the unseen forces that shape consumerist lives and draws heavily from the interplay between the bio(productive) and necro(destructive) forces that create and shape them. Minimalist in her application, and disruptive hence. It invites the viewer to engage with these elusive systems of control. Blurring the position between the subject/object.

Unrivalled in his documentation of India through art, Thomas Daniell arrived here in 1786. What followed was creations that are celebrated across the world, centuries after.
From presidencies to people, customs to curiosities, flora, fauna and even famed sites—Thomas Daniell spent a decade painting, sketching and discovering India in every easel he touched. He was one of the first from England to do so. In his work, you’ll stand at the banks of the Ganga, or in a wooded forest of the south, perhaps even Himalayan peaks—all in ways that recount what our past held.
