SeaSisters- “Breaking Barriers, Making Waves”
The French photographer Emilien Buffard’s photographic project on inclusivity in sport, “Sport Friendly: The Field of Diversity” extends to Sri Lanka through this exhibition at the Alliance Française de Colombo.
It portrays the SeaSisters, a group of local female surfers based in Weligama, Sri Lanka, who break the boundaries set by their backgrounds, society and the surfing eco-system as they empower local women and girls to swim and surf.
Through the creative collaboration of the photographer Munira Mutaher, the exhibition will be launched on Saturday the 29th of June at 4.00pm with a panel discussion that highlights how SeaSisters exemplify the concept of the inclusivity in sports.
It will be on display from the 29th of June till the 20th of July from 9.00am to 5.30pm at the Alliance Française de Colombo.
