Vanko presents works take on the issues of the female experience of love, sexuality, discrimination, and power. She seeks the empowerment of women through sexual liberation and societal liberation. Her sculpture and collage work combines sexual imagery (high heels, breasts), elements of domestic life (coffee pots, baking pans) along with the excitement of fringe and tassels to give women permission to claim their lives and sexuality on their terms.
