Nina Sandino (She/they) born in Bilwi ["snake in the leaf" in the Mayangna language] on the Nicaraguan Caribbean Coast, a reservoir of diverse cultures, indigenous peoples and ethnic communities.
Nina is an architect and movement artivist, working independently as an eco social designer, choreographer/performer and dance facilitator. Their practice focuses on Afro indigenous queer futurism and ancestral communal knowledge. Nina's work is moved by the urgency of artistic expression as a political action, and is interested in holistic practices, where rest, pleasure and joy work as radical tools for personal and collective empowerment. Their artistic practice is a joyful rebellion for self-preservation.
