My son by Niroshana De Silva, 32 yrs (Embilipitiya)

Profile

Niroshana’s personal interests include traveling around the country. Niroshana is married, with one son, Lehan who was the inspiration for this photography project. Lehan is 4 years old and will be schooling next year. Niroshana's wife, Shiranthi, is a housewife. He longs to make his family “his day” and move everything else to "beyond the day". His main area of interest in photography is documentary and he is interested in listening to music and playing drums.

Concept

My son is my world. He is a cute and a very active kid, who has marked his presence all over, with very colourful designs on every wall. Sometimes he wants to be with everyone, playing, singing, chatting, while at other times, he wants to be alone. When he is at grandma’s place, near the lake, at the playground, or with his friends, he does not feel tired at all, and he doesn't want to sleep unless he accidentally falls asleep. I attempted exploring his activities in these different spaces.
