Main
Ama Liyanage is a contemporary artist based in Kitchener, ON. She draws inspiration from cherished childhood memories and the simple, often overlooked joys of everyday life. Inspired by French and Dutch Impressionist portrayals of leisure, she reimagines these traditions to challenge conventional depictions of women of colour. Through her art, Ama shifts this narrative, offering representations that celebrate identity, leisure, and introspection. Her painting style is ever-evolving and multifaceted, embracing experimentation and allowing diverse techniques to coexist harmoniously.
