brutalisturinal is an artist, carer, sex worker and death worker from Birmingham, UK who makes work about trans and queer sex, BDSM and cruising practices and public space, temporality and transience. His work has been described as equal parts horny, sad and funny which also sums him up as a person.
After leaving school at the age of 11 due to suffering a nervous breakdown, he educated himself with the help of pop culture, zines and gigs, later gaining a First-class BA in Interactive Arts (RIP xxx) from Manchester Metropolitan University and an MA in Fine Art from Birmingham City University. His work has been shown / performed at the BFI Southbank (London), Schwules Museum (Berlin), Manchester Art Gallery, Haus der Kulturen der Welt (Berlin), CCA Derry~Londonderry, Grand Union (Birmingham) and the Centre for Sex and Culture (San Francisco) (etc...). From 2014 to 2018 he ran the DIY education project Queer Day School based on his own experiences of autodidactism. In 2019 he set up the living research project cum queer sex party Temporary Cruising Zone, which he still runs. His video smut essay 'Onanism or my trans body makes me so fucking horny' won the International Short Factual 2026 award at the Athens Porn Film Festival.
He is now sober and would like to apologise to anyone he worked with prior to 2024.
He is available for writing commissions, readings, performances, collaborations and Pro Dom sessions.
