Art by Art Rhizome

There's something quietly magical about walking into an art space for the very first time, when the walls are still learning how to hold stories, and the air feels charged with possibility.

Colombo is experiencing one such moment with the inaugural exhibition of Art Rhizome, a place that introduces itself gently, yet confidently, as "the space where freedom forms." Held from 17th December to 16th January at 31/4, Gregory's Road, Colombo 07, this exhibition is open from 10 am to 6 pm, inviting curious and wandering minds to step in and take a pause (excluding Christmas and Poya Day).

This art exhibition draws you in through texture, silence, colour, and conversation, where each artwork feels deeply intentional and wonderfully unhurried. You begin to notice how the gallery allows the pieces to breathe, how it gives space not just to art but to thought, too. This is not art meant to impress you from a distance, but something monumental that asks you to come closer.
