Nima Sene: Beige B*tch
Daniel Hughes
Book now

Beige B*tch is an explosive mix of live art, movement and film that tells the story of a black woman’s quest for cultural and aesthetic belonging.

Through her TV show alter-ego, Nima Séne asks what it means to be both ‘beige’ and black and sends up everything from YouTube workout tutorials to conservative ideals of beauty in the process.
