Dinara Rasuleva (she/they) is a writer and poetess based in Berlin and born in Kazan, Tatarstan. Master’s in Linguistics, Nizhni Novgorod State Linguistic University, 2009.
Dinara writes in Tatar, Russian, English and German — languages she uses everyday. Dinara’s poetry was described and analysed as decolonial and feminist writing, as expressionist poetry and performance poetry.
In 2020 Dinara started a feminist writing laboratory for russian-speaking immigrant FLINTA community.
In 2022 Dinara started the Lostlingual project, an investigation of the loss of her native Tatar language through translingual abstract poetry. In 2023 in collaboration with Berlin library Totschka Dinara started TEL:L laboratories: writing in native forgotten or stolen languages.
In 2020, she co-founded the musical art collective TATAR KYZ:LAR, whose debut multilingual album AŞ was released in 2025 in the form of a computer game.
