Elisheva Gavra (b. 1992)  is an artist and photographer based in New York. She is interested in photography as a belief system, and in the possibility for an audience to explicate and question those beliefs. Her practice involves photography and performance treated as systems of designation. Her work demonstrates a participation in reality and its mechanisms of meaning.

Her work has been exhibited at the Jewish Museum in New York, The Broad Art Center in Los Angeles, and elsewhere. She is a recent MFA graduate in photography from Columbia University. Gavra is a current participant of the Interdisciplinary Art and Theory Program in Manhattan, NY.
