Vivek Vilasini (b. 1964) trained in sculptural practices from traditional craftsmen and went on to become an artist who works across digital and sculptural media, with a particular interest in structures of knowledge, politics and identity.

He examines our existing social structures, adapting various expressions of cultural identity prevalent in society today to raise questions about the continually changing global scenario that every individual struggles to keep pace with. His large-format photographs evoke delicate ironies that impact existing ideologies and influence cultural and social consciousness of viewer.

More recently, interested in resilience and climate change, Vilasini has planted a forest in Munnar which serves as a laboratory for growing varieties of food adapted to the changing environment.
