Antithestasia

LA based sushi chef, dominatrix, fire-spinner, sex educator, organizer, masseuse, blogger, millinress and model who is currently working on starting a non-profit while Occupying Los Angeles.

I have a taste for photographs that are surreal, kinky, fantastical, whimsical, and post-apocalyptic. My dream is to create new worlds and new civilizations, to boldly go... erm, pardon. I mean, let's do something a bit more fun than "shoot the pretty girl." Unless we're talkin' fake blood to represent patriarchal oppression, the broken body becoming a symbol for the tragic result of slut-shaming and body-policing. 

The idea of using the body itself as a canvas greatly appeals to me.

My notable skills, as they pertain to photography, are firestaff & poi, and rope bondage [which is to say, I am experienced as both a rope bottom, including suspension, and also as a top; I do most of my own rope-work and am happy to tie up your model].

A few notes:

~ My hair has changed since my last shoot. I now have a thick, shoulder-length mohawk that I wear in a bun, while the sides of my head are shaved.

~ I am a heavy woman. My photographs do not always show this, but I am big. My thighs are enormous, my belly jiggles, and I have fat arms. Please do not expect me to be slender.

~ Regarding nudes: I have all of my body hair. My leg hair is blonde and near-invisible, but my underarm and pubic hair is not, and has been controversial. I will not be getting rid of any of it. Thank you for your understanding.
