Adriana Toledano Kolteniuk (1991) is a writer, teacher, and translator from Mexico City who spent her formative years in the US and has been a bilingual, bi-cultural bridge-builder since. She obtained her degree in English Literature from UNAM and then spent 8 years in Chiapas, where she (re)discovered her passion for wild nature, community building, and social justice.  Adriana's writing often exists at the intersection of art and activism and she considers herself an ecofeminist thinker who creates verbal-affective ecosystems from a queer, neurodivergent, anti-colonial lens. Adriana is a recipient of the Fulbright-García Robles Grant for Mexican citizens to pursue postgraduate studies in the US, and she is currently enrolled in the Creative Writing MFA at University of Notre Dame. She has collaborated with Dolores since 2018 in the translation of several plays, including Annie Ryan’s stage adaptation of A Girl is a Half-Formed Thing by Eimear McBride, which has been staged in Mexico City, Barcelona, and London. Her poems have appeared in ADDANOMAD, Voices of Mexico, and self-published individual and collective chapbooks and zines in Mexico and the United States. She has participated in public readings in both countries as well, as a member of poetry collectives and individually, in independent as well as institutional art spaces. Her most recent readings have taken place at the University of Notre Dame and art festivals in South Bend, Indiana, including Mayhem and Yart. In 2024, Adriana incorporated collage art and vocalization into her artistic practice. She is currently working on her first full-length poetry collection, a hybrid chapbook, and an soundscape and installation of collage poems about borderline personality disorder.
