Erica Rivera

Erica “ERN” Rivera (she/they) is a performance writer, editor, and collage artist. She is the author of The Ecology of Art, Strike! (tRaum Books, 2025), her forthcoming debut collection of essays. For fun, she likes to watch TV and pretend all the characters are trans. Her author photo is a rainbow of colors streaming across a brown background streaked with vertical white; a small flame at top-right is fenced by horizontal black lines, the words WOULD YOU ENDURE atop, in white at the base of a black rectangle; a sideways, triangular cut-out of a text on surviving nuclear war slices through the bottom.
