Nin Magazine: The Erotic Art Publication Celebrating the Female Form

12 August 19

Art and eroticism can be difficult to define. How do you decide what constitutes art and what is just, well, plain old porn? A lot of the porn that we see is made for men by men; it can be extremely off-putting in the choice of bad lighting, terrifying angles or actors who seem a bit dead in the eyes.
