Dieynaba Sidibé

Dieynaba Sidibé, known as Zeina or Zeinixx, is a slam poet, visual and graffiti artist from Senegal.

Zeinixx is a self-taught artist who started painting in 2004 at the tender age of 14. In 2009 she became the very first female graffiti artist. Renowned Senegalese graffiti artist Grafixx al Mukhtar has mentored her since the beginning of her career, and as an homage to him, she named herself Zeinixx, which is a fusion of her name Zeina and his name Grafixx.

Zeinixx has performed and exhibited her work at both local and international festivals.
