Walawwa, is a conceptual and visual tour of a heritage monument and of some of the people who built it and lived in it over a period of more than 200 years. Interweaving twin stories, one architectural,the other socio-historical,the visual and textual narrative makes a coherent cultural statement. It imaginatively reconstructs aspects of past ways of life as embodied in architectural and other artifacts, and tracks a combination of tradition and modernity, a creative 'hybrid, that marks the evolution of Sri Lankan culture as it finds its way in the modern era.
