Clouds and Kinbaku
Floating spaciousness, emotions, ephemeral, spiritual
.
Kinbaku is a Japanese word referring to the art of sensually tying a person. Originating from hojōjutsu, a samurai technique for binding a prisoner, the modern adaptation evolved in the bedroom between lovers. Rope bondage in recent history as become more mainstream, as artists like Nobuyoshi Araki
@_nobuyoshi_araki_ and Hajime Kinoko
@hajime_shibari built entire careers centered around the art form, and musicians feature shibari (meaning “to bind”, and is more commonly used in English) in their music videos such as “Pendulum” by FKA Twigs, “Moonlight” by L’FREAQ, and “I choose me” by Roniit

In my practice, jute , in the language of kinbaku, becomes a tool for accessing partnered flow state. Rope flow requires trust and intimacy, and grants access to a depth of connection not easily acquired otherwise. In our post-pandemic touch avoidance, this practice immerses each other in physical sensation, and in complete attention. No running mind, nothing else to do- just co-regulation, breathing through pain, emotional releases, and tight hugs.
