Txnth Muse

A cheeky, yet compelling and profoundly emotional body of fictional fantasy visual storytelling that explores the deep and whimsical imaginings of a queer sex worker.

Txnth Muse grew up with her arts and her books as a refuge amongst unfamiliar worlds - always carrying her to the safety and freedom that lay within her imagination. Using her love for storytelling she has created a body of multidisciplinary art that meets in the world between fantasy and reality. This artistic endeavor serves as a means to express the emotional landscape of life within the sex industry, carving narratives into form with large clay sculptural pieces and mixed media photography.

aKA Emil Cañita

Emil Cañita is a trans Filipino artists who challenges societal norms through their lens. As a sex worker, Emil intertwines her experiences with her clients whilst capturing poignant moments on Polaroid film.

Inspired by renowned queer Asian artist, William Yang, and with his permission, Emil adapts his unique style of storytelling into her works whilst instilling her unique voice alongside it. Her work serves as a powerful exploration of intimacy, identity, and the often marginalized lives of fellow sex workers, creating a visual narrative that demands acknowledgment and empathy. Through their lens, Emil challenges stereotypes and sheds light on the complex intersections of gender, sexuality, and occupation

Ambient Anxiety

Ambient Anxiety is an Eora based interdisciplinary creative. Her practice spans photography, visual arts and the written word, though each of her artistic tendrils emerge from, and are tended by, the substratum of her sex work.

Eternally informed and inspired by such intimate contact to the nexus of sex and power, her featured work is an excerpt from an ongoing and expansive exploration into the Madonna-Whore Complex, patriarchy, the control and consumption of Femme bodies, pleasure & rage.

Desiree

Dissatisfied with how the sex industry in Naarm was being commercially photographed (and by whom), I fell into a natural harmony between my roles as an artist and a sex worker. While cultivating a safe space for my peers by inviting them into my moody, daytime soap tv inspired world, I also found I was able to establish my own sense of community; connecting through varied shared experiences regardless of what our own version of sex work looked like and how it operated.

Designed to be touched, shared, admired, played with; “Lucky You” is a series of intimate portraits of workers I’ve crossed paths with both in Naarm and Eora—whether through the club, in chain hotel rooms, behind a bar, online or in front of my lens. Its goal is to pass on, through our own hands, that same feeling—serving as a catalyst for shared experiences rooted in joy and connection.

DreamUgly

Dream Ugly Wake Up is a zine and an on-going collection of fantasies, collaged erotica and discarded journal entries. Whilst inviting the viewers into a world of dream like visuals, her work challenges the largely debated distinction between erotic art and porn.

E’s themes of metamorphosis and renewal binds together worlds of ethereal landscapes, visual narratives and curated chaos.

Anonymous Sex Worker

‘In these purple walls’ is an honest collection of musings on the ironic and messy times working as a FSSW at my home br0thel, a place where I have had my most profound, funny, sad, and stupid moments.

This multimedia piece encapsulates the strange and vast array of feelings that I have had at work which are informed by the unique working environment of a br0thel and the hours of pondering that happens when I sit still for hours at a time. The beautiful and spiky floral cave represents the br0thel and is made of recycled artificial and dried plant materials. It is constructed with recycled chicken wire and is accompanied by a series of poems and words gathered over the past two years that were written in the ‘girls’ room.

Quinn Kush

This is a photographic experience of my loves; Cannabis and Erotica

I have been called to create this body of work to display the beauty of these exquisite medicines who have been locked in the shadows. Within the intersection of Erotica and Marijuana we see that they have both been demonized, stigmatized, endured incarceration and still fight for legalization and the right to be celebrated as healing modalities. It is my intention to shine a golden light on the transcendental state inhaled from the empowerment and creativity of these expressions, most especially when they are experienced intentionally. Obsessed with the time period that we are currently traversing and the pendulum shift taking place for more liberation both within own bodies and the world!
