Vinisha—also known as Sedeso— is a Maryland-born first generation Caribbean-American. With strong roots in the islands Anguilla and Antigua yet growing up in the US, she works closely with the idea of intersectionality. She comes from a deeply woven legacy of crafters, writers, and musicians, and holds these close within her multi-disciplinary dance and literature art praxis.
Volunteering, researching, and mentoring in nature conservation as a young adult instilled the desire to share her love of nature through story. This was a love cultivated between the woody east coast forests and brightly-colored sandy tropics of the Caribbean. Her life has been changed continuously as she offers land care and art collaborations that bridge cultures. These planted seeds began to bloom in her work when she moved to Atlanta, Georgia to expand her creative career. Since then, she has curated 5 live music and poetry events as well as worked with contemporary dance platform glo ATL.
