ABOUT THE WORK

Some of Joya’s engaging works include the erotic. They are direct and fresh and engage the viewer on several levels at once, taking in as they do areas of dark human consent and making them into art. He worked without apology. This work is notable for its subtlety in regards to its subject, making it more provocative through its implied subtext in comparison to the many nudes the artist produced. The uncompromising body gestures and the expressive lines mark this work as an exponent of erotic art. Erotic art often covers scenes of love-making, it can be attributed to any piece expressing or hinting at certain types and level of arousal.
