Positioned between retrospective and living studio, the exhibition moves across time rather than following a fixed chronology. The exhibition identity and guide were designed to extend this framework into a cohesive graphic language across print and display. <img width="10417" height="5858" width_o="10417" height_o="5858"

2025 06:36:29 +0000 Thilini Perera https://thiliniperera.com/Governing-Heritage-and-Creativity Governing heritage and creativity: frictions, avenues, and questions Creative approaches to both planned and unplanned new practices remain an essential, yet somewhat invisible, part of sustaining living heritage. This collection of essays by interdisciplinary scholars and practitioners draws attention to how decisions are made about heritage and creativity issues, values, and relationships. We seek to shift away from a binary choice between authenticity versus change towards a multi-dimensional understanding governance of creativity and heritage. This is relevant for all forms of heritage whether described as cultural, natural or both.

Explored against the backdrop of colonial penal codes that criminalise queer bodies, this project examines how Lunuganga subverts traditional paradigms of garden design through its representations and ecological aspects which questions the perceptions of what defines “normal” and “natural”. It underscores the importance of incorporating otherness into architectural and landscape design to create inclusive spaces. This exploration is facilitated through an installation of the same title, scheduled for viewing in December 2023, as well as a series of workshops, and public talks leading up to the To Lunuganga programme closing event in July 2024.

+0000 Thilini Perera https://thiliniperera.com/Drawing-from-the-Archives Geoffrey Bawa: Drawing from the Archives The architecture of Geoffrey Bawa (1919-2003) was revolutionary. The Sri Lankan architect succeeded in fusing sensitivity for local context with the technological discoveries and design principles of modernism in his work. A pioneer of bioclimatic architecture, Bawa incorporated materials and layouts specific to Sri Lanka’s monsoon climate and storied architectural history into his modernist designs. Although he never built outside Asia, his work and way of thinking resonate far beyond the region. Gathering essays by scholars and writers across a multitude of disciplines, this volume spotlights the beautiful architectural drawings of Bawa’s practice. Illustrated with more than 200 drawings and photographs, many of which published for the first time, the book delves into the central, multipronged role of the medium in Bawa’s work. It also explores the identity of post-independence Sri Lanka, which Bawa helped to shape aesthetically and ideologically.

It is interspersed with essays by women writers that provide an insight into the historical threads that tie women’s experiences of war to the contemporary challenges that women face in post-war Sri Lanka. This book is therefore meant to be an intergenerational transference of memory between those women that have lived through violent conflict and those who were too young to remember the true, human cost of war, as experienced by ordinary citizens. The narratives shared here, unequivocally acknowledge that women’s histories matter, need to be acknowledged and must occupy the nexus of history, justice and peace if the next generation is to create a future better than our past.

Radical Geographies Annual Report commission by Urgent Action Fund Asia Pacific. &nbsp;Read the full report here. 2021 presented the toughest terrains to navigate - conflicts, coups, political turbulence, amid a global pandemic that left no population unscathed. Even as struggles and hardship intensified for women and non-binary human rights defenders, they innovated on ways to survive, collectivise and draw strength to face adversities. Much like how lichens find way to grow on bare, inhospitable earth, feminist movements sprouted and sustained life even in scorched landscape. This report takes you through the journey of how feminist grant-making prepared the grounds for human rights defence to spawn and fruit even in inhospitable terrains. How roots of collective care and symbiosis through sisterhood nourished feminist landscapes of Asia and the Pacific. ‘Radical Geographies’ borrows language and inspiration from the magnificent, but invisible ecologies of fungi, molluscs and lichens to explore resilience, rebellion, care and interconnectedness of regional feminist communities and movements. <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f69fe7bcbf0a450041497ce9991e2e40ddc72e66d8c7d750fb09f70f5f13bc98/UAF-2023.jpg" data-mid="227880430" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f69fe7bcbf0a450041497ce9991e2e40ddc72e66d8c7d750fb09f70f5f13bc98/UAF-2023.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cef4f550576f83578ff5fcdd42aec3f4d06337f4c8028e82c056b024d2a8466f/UAF-20232.jpg" data-mid="227880431" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cef4f550576f83578ff5fcdd42aec3f4d06337f4c8028e82c056b024d2a8466f/UAF-20232.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/29959efda55c1402cf7739ce7996f8431c9d55d72d90a7ab157d1addcebed290/UAF-20233.jpg" data-mid="227880432" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/29959efda55c1402cf7739ce7996f8431c9d55d72d90a7ab157d1addcebed290/UAF-20233.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/437ce297921b1fc68e1dc32450af2eea7e00e6de3a7ccc6ecf75633226448532/UAF-20234.jpg" data-mid="227880433" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/437ce297921b1fc68e1dc32450af2eea7e00e6de3a7ccc6ecf75633226448532/UAF-20234.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7685636375460df542ee09cebf0d4d560d2667bd60193c6c13edd86da11a74a5/UAF-20235.jpg" data-mid="227880434" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7685636375460df542ee09cebf0d4d560d2667bd60193c6c13edd86da11a74a5/UAF-20235.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0c522a2ca31ac75ff3e45f1112c9f4a1db25b26b663cf0b9263a7e772bd9707e/UAF-20236.jpg" data-mid="227880435" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0c522a2ca31ac75ff3e45f1112c9f4a1db25b26b663cf0b9263a7e772bd9707e/UAF-20236.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/18727d2aa13798a07841912b46f8d4df14c2e56ec73e74df5f1e563357af7191/UAF-20237.jpg" data-mid="227880436" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/18727d2aa13798a07841912b46f8d4df14c2e56ec73e74df5f1e563357af7191/UAF-20237.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4860472944a3f0038e1d479afdfd42a0aecafcc6a5b92a4835cc450e5553d046/UAF-20238.jpg" data-mid="227880437" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4860472944a3f0038e1d479afdfd42a0aecafcc6a5b92a4835cc450e5553d046/UAF-20238.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0096685da0199c9ea372e4bb06a730cafab4cdf1fe58e7cb93637367dcf29f0e/UAF-20239.jpg" data-mid="227880439" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0096685da0199c9ea372e4bb06a730cafab4cdf1fe58e7cb93637367dcf29f0e/UAF-20239.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/10cce8a047db7837f6bedef44008838704d8f47f5064896c2e5cf497366388a9/UAF-202310.jpg" data-mid="227880441" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/10cce8a047db7837f6bedef44008838704d8f47f5064896c2e5cf497366388a9/UAF-202310.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e72dd7ce7cffe2ae4a5020d9f70ab580148e51c487dea65d8ca6c129aecd14a7/UAF-202311.jpg" data-mid="227880442" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e72dd7ce7cffe2ae4a5020d9f70ab580148e51c487dea65d8ca6c129aecd14a7/UAF-202311.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a74a361a82eae7e6be7516d5ae53467c85d5249632672553acead34658da5336/UAF-202312.jpg" data-mid="227880443" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a74a361a82eae7e6be7516d5ae53467c85d5249632672553acead34658da5336/UAF-202312.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f1f13a1dcfc5bb8d1088c5200c5f8957d8f230c175e00dbfa7700a6eaa4188af/UAF-202313.jpg" data-mid="227880444" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f1f13a1dcfc5bb8d1088c5200c5f8957d8f230c175e00dbfa7700a6eaa4188af/UAF-202313.jpg" />
