Dinithi De Alwis Samarawickrama

Dinithi De Alwis Samarawickrama is a multi-disciplinary artist from Sri-Lanka. They identify as a queer, disabled, immigrant and settler, living and working on the land of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation. Their works concern the theme of diasporic longing and loss. It is primarily centred on the acts of dreaming and prayer. Through the analysis and honouring of ancestral practices and speculative ecologies they hope to build a spiritual foundation of critical deep love and togetherness, that helps them and their loved ones move towards a post-colonial, post-capitalist world.
