Sri Lanka, 1977

Sumali (Buki) is a contemporary abstract artist from Sri Lanka, working primarily in oil and mixed media. An accountant by profession, she later transitioned from her corporate career to pursue art full time. She is largely self-taught, developing a practice rooted in material exploration, texture, and process. Her work combines traditional painting approaches with contemporary layering techniques, using oil, plaster, and other media to build surfaces that shift between control and erosion. She has exhibited internationally and is represented on several online art platforms, where her work has reached a global audience of collectors and viewers. Drawing inspiration from nature and personal experience, her paintings function as emotional rather than representational spaces. Each work reflects an ongoing engagement with memory, place, and transformation, where gesture and material become a language beyond words.
