conceptual photography
Shifani’s conceptual photography lives at the intersection of personal narrative and collective memory.
Drawing from themes of gender, identity, and emotional ecology, her work transforms everyday stillness into sites of inquiry and resistance. Her lens seeks not just to document but to disrupt—inviting viewers to feel, question, and witness. She views her images as visual poems rooted in feminist thought and a deep reverence for the body as archive.
documentary film
Rooted in her commitment to community and social change, Shifani’s documentary work centers the lived experiences of women and marginalized voices in Sri Lanka. Her films are slow-crafted, intimate, and grounded in listening. Whether collaborating with platforms like Roar Global and the British Council or producing grassroots pieces with local storytellers, she treats each project as a process of shared authorship.
