Sri Lanka Sculpture: Siva is a landmark volume in the Sri Lanka Sculpture series, published by the Central Cultural Fund as a companion to the acclaimed Sri Lanka Paintings project. Authored by Dr. Nandana Chutiwongs, Prof. Leelananda Prematilleke, and the late Dr. Roland Silva, this first edition (2013) presents an in-depth visual and scholarly exploration of Hindu sculpture in Sri Lanka, with a special focus on representations of Siva in stone and bronze.
 
The volume highlights the intricate craftsmanship and artistic mastery of Sri Lanka’s ancient sculptors, tracing the religious and cultural exchanges between Buddhist and Hindu traditions over the centuries. Through high-quality photographic documentation, critical analysis, and historical context, it sheds light on the evolution of Siva imagery and its place within the island’s diverse artistic heritage. Now out of print, this publication remains an invaluable reference for art historians, archaeologists, and anyone interested in South Asian sculpture and the spiritual artistry of Sri Lanka’s past.
