The London Festival of the Art of Japanese Rope Bondage presents kinbaku (aka shibari/Japanese rope bondage) as an artistic inspiration, a performance art in its own right and as a means of erotic communication, whilst sharing knowledge about it and its cultural context in a way that is accessible to all. We present an unparalleled range of talent from around the world and it is rapidly establishing a reputation as the Japanese bondage event. It includes:

• Kinbaku inspired art, photography and design
• Presentations, classes and workshops by world renowned experts
• Music, movies and videos
• Performances and demonstrations
• Japanese food and drink

The main venue will be the Resistance Gallery. This is an unique, multi-functional, modern, 2,200sq ft arts, performance & gallery space in the creative heart of Bethnal Green, London E2. It provides art exhibition space, theater, avant-garde gatherings, cabaret, photographic shoots, filming & video location, live music events, multi media installation experiences, workshops etc.

The festival started on the 1st of October and carries on until the 8th. For more information about tickets before the festival finishes look here
