- Hello! I'm an illustrator, graphic recorder and book designer from South Asia. I use art to participate in and contribute to social justice movements. I primarily work with organisations at the intersections of women's and LGBTQIA+ rights, digital rights, sexual and reproductive justice and environmental justice among other areas. I'm currently dreaming and drawing about mental health, fat liberation, queerness and community care. When I'm not at my desk, you'll likely find me on a lounge chair with my book and a heating pad. I'm known to have at least 25 tabs open at any given point of time. Some of my favourite things to eat are pizza, cheese, paneer butter masala and everything bread.

I’m a nonbinary notes nerd, writer, and storyteller who works in / around collective learning, meaning, and memory in Southeast Asia. You might have seen me typing away at a meeting in the day or reading tarot cards for feminists at night. I grew up with spirituality, science, the supernatural, and the internet— and maintain over 20 years of searchable journal entries and counting. My special interests include poetry, the Qur’an, and magical combos of queerness + autism.they/them
Region: Southeast Asia / Asia Pacific - In Swahili we say “Karibuni” to welcome people! So karibuni to my playlist!!! My name is DJ Viv from Kenya. I enjoy the stillness of nature, the love and solidarity of the feminist community that I’ve found across regions , Dido’s music…(Highly recommend) and can occasionally be found providing legal opinions on things. I have created this playlist for you all, with all my love and picked resources from different parts of Africa that I identify with in a way, that I have learnt from and that have fueled my feminist spirit to keep organizing. I hope we can talk about them, and I hope they inspire something in you too. Feel free in this space and WELCOME!!
