Colombian artist, researcher and teacher, currently based in Mexico City. Her projects combine various strains of knowledge and practice, and are located in territories where the living and the inanimate are compelled to be redefined. Her open-ended and long-term inquiries appropriate certain epistemic traditions in order to open a space for collaborative endeavors, museological experiments, experimental writing, discussion forums, pedagogical spaces, among other processes that enable the emergence of other types of knowledge. Since 2015, her research has focused on the transformations, water crises, and resistance movements (both human and other-than-human) which unfold in the Lake Texcoco region as well as in Mexico City’s metropolitan area. Adriana has a BA in fine Arts from the Jorge Tadeo Lozano University of Bogota, an MA in Philosophy from the Javeriana University of Bogota, and a PhD in Art and Design from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). She is a teacher in the Visual Arts program at the Javeriana University, a workshop facilitator and advisor of cultural projects. She also writes for various publications.
