Promoted by the "Nessunotocchimario" Association in collaboration with COMICON, the event aims to explore sexuality and disability through the art of comics, challenging prejudices and offering an authentic image of non-stereotyped bodies.

An invitation to reinterpret literature

This year's theme is literature, with the aim of transforming the beauty of imperfect yet sensual bodies into images, taking inspiration from great classic novels and modern works.

Examples include "Beauty and the Beast" and "Notre Dame de Paris," which explore love that transcends external imagery. Artists are encouraged to reinterpret romantic scenes from literature, emphasizing the intrinsic beauty of every body.

Contest Details

New cartoonists and illustrators, aged 16 and up, can participate for free. The works must be sent by 20 January 2025 to the email address concorso@sensuability.it. The jury will select the best works, which will be exhibited in Rome from 14 February to 14 March 2025. The poster, created by Kutoshi Kimino of the Sputnik collective, reworks a scene from Dante's Inferno in a Sensuability key.

Prizes to be won

Winners will receive prizes including a scholarship to Fabio Magnasciutti's Satire Course, a Wacom One Creative graphics tablet, and tickets to COMICON 2025. The event offers an important platform for creative expression, supporting the evolution of erotic imagery in the context of disability and literature.

The event is interesting but I don't know if comics can really express the beauty of imperfect bodies. It seems a bit difficult to reinterpret literature in this way, but everyone has their own opinion. I'm waiting to see the works but I hope they are well done.
