Atisha Razack found niche in henna art

Atisha Razack

Henna/Mehendi artist Atisha Razack had stayed out of the limelight, while creating beautiful designs, but this all changed when a photo was posted on Facebook of her designing the hands of radio personality Bindiya Takchandra in preparation for her wedding.

Fondly referred to as ‘Tisha’, she had always been artistic as a girl growing up and was commended on her talent throughout her school life. However, life was not normal for her as she dealt with health issues which saw her in and out of the hospital. This remains the case today. Even so, Tisha tries to remain optimistic and do the best she can.

Owing to her health, she had long realized that she could not do a 9-5 job. Yet, initially, she never saw herself doing henna artistry. It all began more than a decade ago when Tisha got her hands designed for an occasion she was attending, but the designs were not as great as she had hoped. She knew she could do a better job if she tried, and vowed then to learn henna art, so she could do the designs she wanted.
