Nisha Ramayya

Nisha Ramayya works across poetry, criticism, and collaborative performance, and teaches creative writing. She’s the author of two poetry collections, Fantasia (Granta, 2024) and States of the Body Produced by Love (Ignota 2019; to be reissued by Spiral House Editions in 2025). Her most recent publication, Fantasia, hazards a listening walk through seashells, telecommunication networks, and cosmic vibrations, to learn something new about how we sound. Alice Coltrane’s experiments in jazz and spiritual community guide these poems that hum and glitch, that leap across space-time, landing in and reflecting the discordant music of life on earth.
