Traditional Masks
Sri Lanka has inherited and been influenced by these traditions of mask making and devil dancing mainly from the cities of Kerala and Malabar in India while Sri Lankan artisans have managed to incorporate more decorative techniques and colour in the masks that are manufactured today.

Giridevi-Maske
Der Vers lautet wie folgt:-
Wenn man die Schritte im Einklang mit der Musik hält, sind die Bewegungen anmutig
Die Aufmerksamkeit des Publikums erregen
Es bringt Freude und weckt Freude im Geist derer, die es sehen.
Es bleibt die Erinnerung an die Schönheit des Giri Devi (Giri-Königin) Kolam (Comic-Tanz) beim Betrachten und Genießen
Wie göttliche Nymphen, die funkelnde Edelsteine tragen, erregen sie das Publikum
Kolam-Tänze von Giri Devi beeindrucken auf verschiedene Weise
Sie sind mit den Liedern, die den Tanz begleiten, den sie heute tanzen, bestens vertraut
Als sie vor die Bühne kommen, schaut sich das Publikum ihre Darbietung an
Von goldener Farbe – dieses Gesicht strahlt immer
In Weiß gekleidet – so kommt heute die Giridevi (Königin)
Giridevi Mask gehört zur Mirissa Udupila United Artistes-Gruppe. Die Verse, die die Maske beschreiben, müssen als Leitfaden für die Herstellung dieser Masken verwendet werden.
