Sumi Perera is an interdisciplinary artist, academic, curator & adjudicator who makes print installations. Exploiting her background as a doctor & scientist born in Sri Lanka & living & working in UK, she makes interactive multimodular works that generate sound(electroconductive-inks), mutate in colour(thermochromic-inks) and illuminate in the dark (fluorescent/UV filaments/torch). In the multimodular works, she often hands over the editorial control to the curator/gallerist/display-team to play with the sequence or alignment to configure how best to hang it to fit into any given space. Her work can contract or expand, lines drawn out of the framed confines (with permission) to convert into an in situ installation blending in with its surroundings. She either intervenes herself of provides instructions to others to complete the drawn lines, or the strung threads. She obtained a MA at Camberwell College, London 2004 and has taught at Middlesex University & Royal Academy, London. She has held many international residencies: at CAFA, Beijing China (2007) & Yinchuan (2019); Scuola Internazionale di Grafica, Venice (2017), Stone Lithography, Pierre Presse, France (2017); The National Open Art Residency London (2016). She exhibits internationally & has won awards/prizes: Royal Drawing Schools Print Prize at the SGFA Open 2024, Prix de Print, Art in Print USA 2015, Gold Medal-Seoul 1st International Artistbook Competition 2005; 1st Prize-SHELTER, USA; Flourish Award 2015-excellence in printmaking & solo show. She was a shortlisted finalist for the Dentons Art Prize 2022-2023; Contemporary Print Prize, Fen Ditton, Cambridge 2023, & the Art Gemini Prize 2017. Public Collections: Tate Britain, Victoria & Albert Museum, British Museum, Royal Collection, Ashmolean, Yale Centre of British Art, USA; Museums in China, Japan, Italy, Egypt, Iraq, Serbia, Romania, Australia & University Collections UK/USA.
