Nina has been performing in drag for the past 2 years in clubs, stages and- during the pandemic- online in drag festivals. Her project DRAUMA merges the world of lyric singing with the art of drag, creating a new, fresh genre that plays with the ideas of gender in traditionally conservative environments such as the classical music business. This project achieved the 3rd Prize at the international competition Goodmesh Concours.
