Artsexual is when one is attracted to art, such as paintings, drawings, sculptures, etc. Often times people who identify as artsexual have little to no attraction to people in real life, and fall under the asexual/aromantic spectrums. This term could be considered a subset to objectum for some individuals, due to sculptures being a possibility, however it is most commonly used in a similar manner to animesexual in which one is attracted to the characters within the art rather than the art itself.
There are multiple microlabels to artsexual. However, due to the extreme variety of art that is possible, they have been cut into general categories. These artsexual identities include...
- Crayosexual: the attraction to crayon art.
- Cilsexual: the attraction to pencil art.
- Paisexual: the attraction to painted art and/or watercolor art.
- Pesexual: the attraction to pen art.
- Digisexual: the attraction to digital art..
- Chalsexual: the attraction to chalk art.
- Kersexual: the attraction to marker art.
- Varisexual: the attraction to various art types, rather than just one category.
One may add a color or a specific type to clarify their attraction. Examples: MSdigisexual/MSpaintdigisexual, BWcilsexual/Black&whitecilsexual, etc.
