📌 About Sonali Dharmawardena

Sonali Dharmawardena, the artist behind the beautiful creations, has worked with many creative mediums from pottery, jewellery, fine arts in oils, water colour and pencil. But with her discovery of the heritage art of Batik, her life took on a whole new journey, as her love of fashion and art converged. Batik, one of the oldest methods of value addition to fabric in the yesteryear, became the happy medium for her to express and share her unique sense of style and design.

📌 About Caterina Roppo

A multidisciplinary artist working between Milan and Palma de Mallorca, Caterina Roppo explores trauma as a space of transformation, weaving together textile art, memory, and ritual. Her practice unfolds across material experimentation, education, and cultural diplomacy, with a strong focus on healing processes and the re-signification of pain.

She is currently involved in two human-centered projects: Il Vuoto di Trayma, an itinerant educational initiative for violence prevention, and SEVA, a cultural relations project supported by the European Union, Culture Relations Platform, British Council, and University of the Arts London.
