A party featuring performance by renowned rope artist Marika Leïla Roux (Gorgone).

Oz & Quinn will host this immersive event, featuring a performance by the renowned rope artist Marika Leïla Roux, also known as Gorgone. Her method and approach to ropes is heavily influenced by her practice of yoga and bodywork, and a desire for an active and conscious partnership between rigger and model. Through this event we hope to showcase the artform of shibari, and the unique aesthetic of the body in rope — a live sculpture created before us.

Featuring additional ambient performances, sensation tasting stations for different kink experiences, and a dungeon space open for play.

About Marika Leïla Roux
After many years of exploration and experimentation with the techniques and emotions of traditional Japanese Rope Bondage (Shibari/Kinbaku), my interest and practice evolved and led me onto a more contemporary and experimental approach of Shibari. The projects presented here were born from the desire to break free from the sexual and S&M connotation that it carries. My mission today is to convey the unique experience and aesthetic of the body in ropes to a broader and more mainstream audience.
I discovered Ropes almost by accident, during a photo shooting in 2011. Immediately seduced, I dove into the underground world of traditional Japanese rope bondage (Shibari/Kinbaku).
In 2016, I started the https://www.study-on-falling.com – an aesthetical and philosophical research and work-in-progress, inspired by the work of Bobbi Jene Smith ‘A Study on Effort’.
The live piece inspired the talented singer Asaf Avidan for the tittle of his new single and album. I was honored to present the live performance ‘Study on Falling’ as his opening act on the prestigious stage of the Opera Garnier in Paris. I have been touring around the world since 2013 as a freelance performer and educator. Access my online tutorial platform: https://www.shibari-study.com
