Senaka Senanayake
(1951)

Butterflies



The flora and fauna of Sri Lanka's forests are the anchoring theme of Senaka Senanayake's art. A child prodigy, the Colombobased artist is deeply committed to preserving the depleting rainforests of Sri Lanka, many of which were converted into tea estates and rubber plantations during the years of colonial rule. His brightly hued canvases appear deeply spiritual, and evoke unbridled happiness, which is of great importance to the artist.
