NSFW curated by Dasha Matsuura

Spoke Art is pleased to present NSFW, a group exhibition featuring over 40 artists exploring themes of sex and sexuality from the femme perspective. This dynamic array of artists displays a complex spectrum of experiences from introspective and intimate to playful and defiant. 

Returning for its fourth edition the exhibition explores and expands on what it means to be a sexual femme presenting person today. Including a wide variety of media such as painting, drawing, embroidery and ceramics, each artist presents facets of sexuality from the feminine viewpoint. The exhibition seeks to celebrate the ever shifting and multi-dimensional experience of each artist from soft sensuality to frank brashness. 

In conjunction with the exhibition, Spoke Art & Paragon Books will be debuting the NSFW hardcover coffee table art book. Comprised of artworks created for the ongoing exhibition, this book features 80 artists across 250 full color pages with essays by Stoya and Lauren YS.
