Thaveechai Sirikulthada, also known as Dev and Foto Talker, is a Thai-Indian photographer who came to photography somewhat by chance, after years spent in his family's textile weaving business.

You don't need eyes to see, you need vision

Raised in a family involved in the textile weaving industry, Thaveechai initially pursued studies related to textiles. His path eventually led him to photography, an opportunity that would change the direction of his creative life. He began studying photography and pursuing the medium seriously around February 2018.

From the beginning of his photographic journey, Thaveechai developed a strong fascination with black-and-white photography. His early body of work, including his first exhibitions, was created entirely in monochrome. The absence of colour allowed him to focus on light, form, texture, atmosphere and emotion, which became defining elements of his photographic language.

In late 2024, he began expanding his practice into colour photography, exploring a new visual dimension while continuing to build on the sensibility developed through his years of working in black and white.
