dykeonaut

the post-modern hyperpop diva of tartu

Pronouns in drag: They/them

Dykeonaut enjoys the gray area between the masculine and feminine, bending oppressive gender roles on every stage they step on. A lot of their drag is inspired by 2000s Estonian pop-culture nostalgia and alternative pop-music of today. 

Off the stage, Dykeonaut volunteers at Behemoth's center (local LGBTQ youth organization) and has helped organize drag events in Tartu.
