The exhibition “LINO CUTTS” presents a selection from his extensive body of work. Karan Vohra’s poetic linocuts depict homoerotic scenes in nature. An intimate, tender gaze upon questions of gay desire is evident in each of his works.

About Karan Vohra:

Karan Vohra (born 1992) is a gay artist, printmaker, and storyteller of Indian origin who has lived in Germany for seven years. He studied computer science, communication design, and digital media in Delhi, Mumbai, and Bremen, graduating from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay and the University of the Arts Bremen. Vohra’s artistic practice is an autobiographical archive of memory, identity, and longing. Through printmaking, painting, and constructed mythologies, he explores queerness, uprooting, and fragile moments of fleeting normality. Nature appears as a metaphor for belonging—rooted in his childhood in India and reflected in love, both lost and transformed through his work. Recurring motifs such as hair, devotion, cruising, and water serve as symbolic vehicles of intimacy and survival.
