Who is Nixi?

Nixi is the Krantikari behind Pillow Talk With Nixi, an insurgent platform challenging colonial architectures across education, research, therapy, consultation, publication, archiving, and art through radical plurilogues, embodied inquiry, and anarchical resistance. She synthesizes transdisciplinary knowledge, decolonial praxis, and anti-institutional frameworks to reimagine the production, dissemination, and practice of knowledge.
