“The Secret Garden” is the second erotic art book to be released by Okasaan Books. For this project, we envisioned a collection of contemporary erotic art inspired by Shunga. We also decided that this new book should be something unique. Historically, erotica has primarily been created by men for other men, portraying a very one-sided view of sexuality. We were interested in understanding what erotica could be when created by female artists. The idea of “The Secret Garden” was born.

We invited several artists, friends and people within the creative network we had built during our careers as tattooists and artists, as well as a number of both established and up-and-coming artists that we had come to admire. The erotic art brought together within the covers of this book is as diverse and creative as the sum of its creators.
