Netti Nüganen (b. 1995) is a performance artist and a musician.



In her stage and video works she becomes a weightlifter, teenage vlogger, detective, historian, cowboy and more. Through these characters, Nüganen builds narratives while deconstructing them, as a method to understand the gaps between recognisable references and language. Treating everything known with careful deconstruction, Nüganen (she/her/a doomer) questions which forms of spectatorship are needed and what's at stake. 

Having attained a BA in choreography at the School for New Dance Development (SNDO), Nüganen's works have been shown at My Wild Flag festival, Batard Festival, Pre-Urbaines, Tartu Art Museum, KIM? gallery, SAAL Biennaal, Impulstanz Festival, Lisbon Film Festival, Lewisham Art Gallery, Sequences Festival, Rakete Festival and more.

Next to that she has been touring since 2017 with Florentina Holzinger’s performances “Apollon”, “Tanz”,  "Ophelia's Got Talent", “SANCTA” and “A Year Without Summer”.
