Alexander Neptune | Art of Contemporary Shibari

Denton, Texas
Alexander Neptune Photography

I am interested in the connection point between people and the rope as a metaphor for the connections that develop between the people doing shibari together. In this sense, rope is a medium of communication. We have TVs, cell phones, email, hugs, kisses, caresses, and myriad other ways of linking ourselves to our lovers, our friends, and our world. Rope is another one of those linkage mechanisms, and a particularly beautiful, sensual and sometimes erotic one. Through rope, we can convey to our partners the universe of positive human experience. Love, lust, joy, contentment, and serenity can be transferred through the rope. Capturing this linkage – and the emotion that is passed from one to another via rope – is my goal.
