FSAP. At the time of his demise Vickum was the Country Liaison Officer and Country Membership Director of the Photographic Society of America in Sri Lanka.

Vickum’s first solo exhibition Fusion of Moods – The Journey Begins was held in 2018 for his 50th Birthday with the Theme 50 plus images: 50 Wheelchairs in support of the Cerebral Palsy Lanka Foundation. 

Vickum continued to pursue his passion for photography travelling the length and breadth of Sri Lanka at any opportunity capturing on lens the beauty of Sri Lanka. Fusion of Moods – The Final Chapter brings together 60 carefully chosen images which showcase his talent and each image carries a special story or memory. It is fitting that all proceeds from Fusion of Moods – The Final Chapter will go towards improving facilities at the Horuwila Vidyalaya in Wilpattu given Vickum's interest in children and charity.
