Grace Olusayo C-Dina is a Rhode Island-based interdisciplinary painter invested in world-building, storytelling, and creating visual narratives. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting, Bachelor of Arts in Digital Media Design, and a minor in Art History from Rhode Island College.

Her practice explores the human body as an allegorical landscape through which she examines the historical and contemporary experiences of Black women, particularly in relation to healthcare, societal structures, and inherited narratives. Through her work, Grace explores themes of misogynoir, erasure, memory, and the body as both a site of resistance and reclamation.
