Eric Suriyasena, one of the pioneers in the Batik Industry opened his newly renovated showroom in Marawila, Sri Lanka. The spacious gallery houses some of the most unique artwork and designs on the Island of Sri Lanka.
For the past 49 years, Eric Suriyasena Batiks has showcased batik art in leading galleries and participated in multiple art exhibitions in countries such as, Sweden, Norway, Germany, Austria, Italy, United Kingdom, USA, Canada and Australia.
A unique aspect of Eric Suriyasena's work is the full spectrum of colours used in his batik artwork. Many of his final pieces have been boiled out at least four times at a minimum and usually many more times.
Each time the wax is boiled out; he introduces a new primary colour and with the overlaying of colours is able to achieve the entire colour spectrum in each piece. His breath taking master pieces can be viewed at the gallery in Marawila.
To this day, Eric Suriyasena Batiks aims to make batik an art that is accessible, enjoyable and engaging to audiences worldwide.
