I'm confused.... do you think it only counts as art if it's in a museum or if it tells a morally good message...? An artist had to draw and paint this in order for it to exist. Film, video games, comics, architecture, sculpture, music, textile, poetry, painting, drawing, etc is all art even if you personally don't value a particular genre. A sculpture of a dildo and Michelangelo's David are both art. A kid's crayon drawing is art. Erotic media is art.

Just because something is created with intention or in a specific medium doesn’t mean it's art..... yes art isn’t only about being displayed in museums or having a “good” message,, but It’s about expression creativity & impact.. those elements *can* make something qualify as art but that doesn’t mean everything that fits those criteria automatically is... Erotic media is definitely art, but that doesn’t mean ALL erotic media is equally meaningful or valuable as art. The value of art depends more on things like the context, the creator’s intent (which is clear in here LOL) , and the audience like YOU who consider it as art. But its still ridiculous how you can consider torture porn which is mainly meant for arousal & exploitation as art....

I think we just have a fundamental difference on what we believe the word art means. To me, art is a neutral label, the perceivable product of someone's imagination and expression and that has nothing to do with quality or value. Whether or not a piece of art has "value" is a completely different question from whether or not something IS "art". I personally find value in this particular story, in this ART, because I enjoy its themes and style. I do think it's interesting to ask if something in particular is art, like is painting a room a different color art? But uuh drawing a comic and telling a story through it, even a violent, erotic one, to me, is obviously art.
Yesss give me love and hate in impossible circumstances, give me torment and horror!!! This is what art is all about!
