Sustained Attention

Greeshma Chenni Veettil (b. 1988, India) is a visual artist and educator based in Hartsdale, New York. Her practice involves recording, analyzing, and forming alliances with ordinary entities in her immediate surroundings. Using photography as an entry point, she works across a range of gestures, such as altering, assembling, and embedding to make her photo sculptures. In their new chimeric configurations, the photographic prints shed their hard-edged frozen state to make way for a visual sensuality that foregrounds the importance of an embodied experience in her work.
Greeshma holds a BFA from the Fashion Institute of Technology, New York (2017), and an MFA in Art Photography from Syracuse University, New York (2024). She was a resident fellow at the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts (2024) and has been selected for a residency at the Vermont Studio Center later this year. Greeshma received the Creative Opportunity Grant from Syracuse University and has participated in numerous group exhibitions, including at Drewelowe Gallery (Iowa City, Iowa), Light Work (Syracuse), Nancy Cantor Warehouse Gallery (Syracuse), and Point of Contact Gallery (Syracuse).
