Rope Suspension
BondageNexus and RopeSiren are avid Shibari rope performers and teachers who have been collaborating since 2019. They are passionate about storytelling in their sets and rope education, and run a monthly rope group at the COTSU.
Burlesque and Tarot reader
Eileen Galvin is a Columbus-native burlesque artist, Tarot reader, and fiery glitterqueer. See her perform on the main stage, and visit her in the Red Room upstairs for Tarot readings. She dreams of a world where liberation exists and is available to all bodies. She believes in the co-creation of that world by wielding the harm-reductive powers of debauchery, depravity, and degeneracy. These powers, though morally derided and relegated to the shadows, are integral to the queer experience. Once unleashed from their closet, they are made instruments of liberation by those with the clarity to shatter oppressive systems, and the courage to revel in their right to exist.
Rope Suspension
Emily, a photographer and model since 2010, has expanded her artistic pursuits within the Columbus community, delving into the intricate world of Artistic Rope. Adapting to the constraints of the pandemic, she has transformed her practice, sharing her passion and expertise through platforms like Instagram and TikTok as KnottyEmily and EmilyRopes. Emily’s artistic repertoire also includes mesmerizing rope shows and stilt walking with The Amazing Giants, where her versatility and creativity come to life.
