The remarkable work of Firi Rahaman, one of Sri Lanka’s most evocative contemporary artists was on display last week at Cinnamon Life, City of Dreams. The hotel’s commitment to celebrating Sri Lanka’s vibrant Artistic talents continue by supporting and showcasing local artists by creating a platform for cultural dialogue and creative expression.
Firi Rahaman’s work gently compels us to reflect on the natural world and our connection to it, portraying a quiet protest through soft hues and delicate forms. This “Artist Spotlight” offers a rare opportunity to engage with the artist and his deeply moving narrative firsthand.
Please see full story by our Journalist Jonathan Frank in the Sunday Observer Muse magazine of June 1. Meanwhile on this page we have those who attended the event ‘Celebrating Art together’, among them were, leading Artists in our country captured by our photographer Shan Rambukwella.

Cinnamon Life is more than a destination—it is a living gallery, home to over 1,000 pieces of commissioned artwork created by Sri Lankan artists. This immersive collection is interwoven across the hotel, restaurants, and public spaces, giving form and soul to the architecture, and offering every guest a journey through the island’s creative heartbeat.
