Barbara Sansoni is Sri Lanka's most celebrated living nonagenarian artist, designer and conservationist. She was born in Kandy, and educated in Ceylon and South India and was awarded an Honorary Doctor of Philosophy for the distinguished service rendered to the field of visual arts from the University of the Visual and Performing Arts, Sri Lanka (2016). Her intense love of colour is inspired by the vibrant colours of South Asia that has provided her with a lifetime's worth of inspiration for painting and fabric design. Barbara set up her design studio and weaving workshop in 1958 and began designing cloth in the early 1960's. In 1964, she was invited to design for women learning to weave in a convent workshop north of Colombo leading to the establishment of her signature textile brand, Barefoot.
