T. Venkanna explores the idea of s*xual fantasies as escapism. His erotic artworks subvert stereotypical representations of s*x and gender, touching upon ideas of violence, pain and desire. “Sex as pleasure—that’s not my concern or intent,” Venkanna tells Vogue India.

Venkanna works with a wide range of media, including drawing, painting, sculpture, installation, and performance, but we especially love his hand-embroidered artworks (pictured), that are created in collaboration with a team of karigars.
