Meet the Artist: @sakrafka
Hello, I’m Boka or Farkas (Far-kash)!
I’m an Eastern European artist under the name of sakrafka (shak-raf-ka). The themes of my art mainly revolve around sapphic and transmasc identities, wlw, nature, animals, and creatures (dragons!!!). I love experimenting and working with different mediums, mainly sculpting with ceramic and polymer clay but I also make animations, linocuts, textile printing, and more. One of the core elements of my work is to create more representation for gender-nonconforming people, especially women - because as such, I’ve always felt very isolated in my identity. I love breaking gender stereotypes and creating a space for people where they can recognize themselves in my work which I never had growing up. If you are autistic, queer or just love creatures, I hope you’ll enjoy my work!
Nice to meet you, Farkas! Below are some pieces she has picked out for you all.
