“He went to jail for DICK PICS!” An Interview w/ Erotic Artist Ria Deters

Today on the Burn Black podcast we have Ria Deters who is a queer artist living in New York City. They specialize in the embroidery of erotic art & are the art & publications director at The Peter Blum Gallery in NYC. They were also the very first person to ever buy Burn Black Zine and have been a *HUGE* supporter from day one. I find it no coincidence that this weeks episode coincides with a lot of grief I was feeling over this Pisces Moon for my friend, Melissa + to find out out Ria & Melissa shared not only the same birthday and job description but overall spirit. Ria’s energy is erratic, intelligent, deeply sexual and all the things that remind me of my dear friend. I love them so much. And you will too. In this episode we discuss DragCon, my memories of going to modeling school as a 12 year old grunge kid, the AIDS epidemic, how Ria dressed up as Jenna Jameson for Halloween as a child and her love of erotic art! We also discuss masterbating with the remote control, painting with blood, & Bob Mizer going to jail for DICK PICS! 🍆 Melissa loved to draw dicks so this episode is amazing but a little grief heavy. Hear Melissa’s voice and love her like I did! Self care tips the week brought to you by Rachel Kalom + Emma Kirkland. Rachel gives you a simple breathwork technique to try at home when you are in crisis. Emma talks making a solid playlist! Ciao bitches! ✨ Follow Ria at @alexandria.deters.art
