Driven by theories of magic/science, Nandini Khaund imbues her potions with history and narrative fantasy drawing from the ethnobotanical study of spirits. As a cuntsultant, she is an “infrastructural designer” of drinks, menus, experiential atmospheres, and best practices for emerging talent and organizations. She has been using our dystopian reality/pandemic space to freak out about how fucked up shit is, educate herself, volunteer and develop her other practices in literature, music, art, and herbalism.
