Amarajeewa, Upul Chamila Bandara, Anuradha Hinakarachchi, Chaminda Gamage and Kingsley Gunethilake.

The organisers expect the exhibition will be an experience, as they have tried to bring out something completely new for art lovers.

'Colombo artists' is the constrastive name which they chose, as their is not an organisation comprised with artists from Colombo. Anyway Chaminda Gamage, one of them said that they wanted this opportunity to raise a question on behalf of the islandwide artists in any medium.

He asked 'all these facilities and resources are only for the Colombo Artists and can an artist be identified as regional level.

Entrance is free and it is open for discussion on the topic with the artists.
