Adira Thekkuveettil (b.1990) is an artist whose work investigates photography’s entanglements with contemporary sociopolitical consciousness, especially in an urban context.

She draws from family histories, archives and her own practice as a photographer to explore the lines that seemingly separate fact from fiction.

She is currently Digital Artist in Residence at the Museum of Art and Photography, Bangalore. Adira is also the Course Director of Aesthetics, Criticism and Theory at Jnanapravaha Mumbai.
