Vik is a rigger and educator based in Barcelona who has been exploring Kinbaku for the past seven years. After experiencing both roles in rope, he found his path as a rigger, developing a style that balances simplicity with intricacy, where every tie serves a clear purpose and intention.
His work focuses on intentional intensity, highlighting the beauty of the body, emotion, and connection through rope. His tying combines a mixture of darkness, strength, delicacy, intensity, eroticism, closeness, power, and more primal instincts, creating experiences.
Alongside teaching at Shizen Studio Barcelona, which he co-runs with Gala, Vik regularly teaches workshops internationally and has presented performances and live rope sessions throughout Europe and abroad. He has also collaborated on professional photography and video projects, using rope as a medium for artistic expression.
Committed to continuous learning and research, his teaching emphasizes solid technical foundations while encouraging creativity, adaptability, and the development of each student’s own artistic voice.
Rope model, performer, and wild cat based in Warsaw, Poland
After seeing her first shibari performance over four years ago, she felt an immediate pull to experience it herself - and before she knew it, it had become a defining part of her life.
Her work is shaped by primal energy, closeness to nature, and embodied awareness.
She explores the raw power of both the body and the mind.
In ropes she dives into emotional intensity and presence - not as a passive receiver, but as an active force who seeks, holds, and deepens the exchange
