Adithi Iyer

Growing up in Sri Lanka, with an Indian ancestry, the performing arts were an integral part of Adithi’s upbringing. She holds a diploma in Bharatanatyam Dance that hugely informs her approach to design and is overjoyed to have made her love of art into a career. Integrity and adaptability are core values that are the foundation for her creative collaborations, with sustainability driving her design choices. She is also an ardent advocate of diversity in the arts and relaying these stories with mindfulness, sensitivity, and an openness to different ways of thinking. She is interested in costume, props and set design for film, live performance, and cultural advisory/ research roles. She is drawn to works with feeling, humorous social commentary, sincerity, and a general love for storytelling.
