Vinoja expresses colours as emerging from the landscape—resembling a well or the hidden roots of a plant, partially visible yet submerged. The work refers to the recent discovery of a mass grave in Chemmani, on the outskirts of Jaffna in Sri Lanka’s Northern Province. This has led to the resurgence of painful memories of the forced disappearances and killings of Tamils during the decades-long civil war, which left deep scars across the island. The work emphasises how the war’s impact continues to haunt families still living in uncertainty about the fate of their missing loved ones.
