Shots of My Show "Sado" at Sydney Sexpo

Hi A/all!

As promised - photos from My HUGE show at Sydney Sexpo 2018!

Yes, there are many shots - but please bear with Me - as there were SO MANY moments to catch, and SO MUCH beauty in literally the BEST show I've ever done!

Please scroll down and enjoy Myself and My amazing co-performer, Paloma Negra from Paloma Negra Theatre, doing our thing on our custom made trapze rig at 10m high!

We won't get too many chances to perform on another rig like this so we really wanted as much capture as possible!

So many venues in Sydney and Melbourne are not high enough. For example, just today we were working out how to bring this to Oz Kink Fest in Melbourne in September, but hung from a 4000mm high tri-truss! (Wish us luck!)

It was the most challenging show for Me yet because I've not done much aerial work before, forget just simply being on the end of the ropes!

As you can imagine, I've mainly been the person DOING the tying - as opposed to receiving rope.

It was a great seachange.

Additionally, I'd offered to Paloma many moons ago that I'd love to teach her a little of bondage, so that she could tie Me in a show.

She's also been slowly grooming Me with more and more aerials content in our progressive shows...

THIS in itself is truly an ARTISTIC BENCHMARK.

Normatively in shibari performance across the world, you'd expect a rigger to tie a rope bottom.

In "Sado" not only do you have a bottom being tied, but also tying rope themself - AND tying the rigger! (PS. I'd NEVER call Paloma a bottom!!)

We wished to created this sense of mirroring in our actions, but also in debunking the traditional role of Top and bottom in BDSM, challenging female roles as bottoms, while creating a technical watershed of a performance.

THIS is what I'm excited about.

Paloma and I wanted to create images that looked like we were mirroring each other, both in action and in attention.

We wanted a sense of connection and intimacy - even if we were at opposite ends of the apparatus.

We wanted the performance overall to look stylish and have a certain elan, while still showing our raw passion for what we do.

I'm REALLY proud to say that we both feel we've achieved all these things. 

It was Paloma's idea to use a costume I'd recently designed and worn for another event, and it just looked fabulous.

The strong black calligraphic mark strikes against our pale skin, covered only in transparent latex! Paired with our similar distinctive hairstyles, we really do make a distinctive performing couple!

Final thanks must go to our amazing photographer, Roberto Duran!

He shot these beautiful images and we are so very lucky (and privileged) to be able to benefit from his exceptional skill and talent! 

THANKS YET AGAIN, ROBERTO!

We'll perform "Sado" again at Oz Kink Fest in Melbourne in September, and then we'll look for any opportunity to show it again around Australia - or maybe even further afield!

If you can get to Hellfire Resurrection on Sept 21, please come to see our show and the wonderful aerial X shibari show that we've created!

Best,

MT

Happy Xmas & NY Holidays!

Hi A/all!

Oh My gosh! I'm writing YET ANOTHER end-of-year blog post after an EVEN BIGGER YEAR than last year. 

Wow. "Is it possible?", you ask? "YES", I confirm! (...and I'd have it no other way!)

I remember looking back over last year and thinking how bumper it was, but THIS YEAR I'm proud to say I've grown more, yet again.

Firstly, My holiday dates...

My Xmas/NY availability:

Sessioning to Dec 23

Dec 24 to Jan 7 - unavailable for appts

Available again from Jan 8

Please know I always observe strict radio silence for this period. This means that I don't check My phone, inbox or social media during this time.

A solid block of time off enables Me to come back refreshed and rejuvenated to torture the hell out of you all as creatively as possible once more in 2018. ;)

On My return on Jan 8, I'll reply to all messages ASAP. 

On to My 2017, in review...

Top of the Task list that I knocked off in 2017:

Me on ABC TV's "Growing Up Gracefully" - touche!

# I was on commercial TV, on "You Can't Ask That.." and "Growing Up Gracefully" on the ABC.

# I was also on commercial Radio on Triple J, on "The Hook Up" - 3 times!

The 2nd Fetish Ed of Australian Penthouse

# I was in Australian Penthouse AGAIN on their second Fetish Issue, then in another regular ed with an in depth interview.

# I took on a trainee, Mistress Reina - and I think she's going to be a winner!

May I present, Trainee Mistress Reina

# I finally made it to Melbourne Sexpo after having to bow out on My first invite when I nearly lost the sight in My right eye 2 years ago! (Yes, it's been 2 years)

# I was asked to speak at an Art After Hours panel at the NSW Art Gallery for the Robert Mapplethorpe exhibition, what a pleasant surprise!

At Mapplethorpe for Art After Hours at the Art Gallery NSW in My own rags

# I did My further-est outcall ever. To Glasgow. Thankyou.

# I went to Ireland, Scotland and Berlin for sessions; three places I'd not gone before.

# I won an Australian Adult Industry Award for "Best for Fantasy and Fetish".

# I celebrated TEN YEARS as an Independant Pro Domme! Yes!!!

...and what a TEN years it's been!

I didn't think I could go as far as I have - but I've already proved to Myself that all I really need to do anything is a leap of faith. I definitely didn't think that I could take this whole ride this far though, 18 years ago...

Every day I look in the mirror and I see My competition - it's a fight with tough odds! That's why I need to get up and hit it EVERY SINGLE day. (Those odds are a blessing!)

Ok. I'm out. See you all next year! (...and yes, I've got something totally new up My sleeve!)

Best, EVER!

In Perth Dec 15-18 for a Show & a Shoot!

Remember this shoot with Wayne Henry?

Hi A/all!

Finally I'm blogging again after an EXCEPTIONALLY BUSY period!

I can't believe the sort of things I've achieved this year and the depth of capacity I currently have.

Literally, some things do get better - or at least more efficient - with age! (AKA Me!)

I'll recap this year past in a future blog, as I normally do at the close of My years...

But right now, I'm writing to tell you I'm in Perth from Dec 15 to 18.

My availabilities in Sydney (no sessions in Perth)

In Sydney up to Dec 14

In Perth 15 - 18

Back in Sydney for sessions Dec 19

I'm going for family RNR, but I'm also jamming in a shoot with Wayne Henry and a show at the Carnal Society Ball on Fri Dec 15th with My trainee Mistress Reina!

Remember these images from Wayne at Warped Photography?

Well, expect MORE OF THE SAME, with Mistress Reina too!

(I hope we will also get to shoot on this salt flat! Hint hint Wayne!)

A shoot I did with Reina just weeks ago, shot by Leslie Liu!I'm really looking forward to shooting with Mistress Reina again; we've shot before once with Leslie Liu, and I'll be releasing more images from the above shoot as they come to hand!

Click on the banner to get tickets!And, if a huge shoot wasn't enough, I'm performing a medical fetish show with Mistress Reina on Friday night at the Carnal Society, too! Come see us both on stage, tying and tormenting our captive insane asylum patient!

If you know Me at all, you'll be well aware I'm a big cricket fan, as well. (There are 3 reasons bringing Me to Perth!)

Therefore, I can't wait to see the Poms SLAUGHTERED at the VERY LAST GAME at the WACA!

I love going to a match and the 4th day of this 3rd Ashes test may prove the cincher for the whole tour. 

Yes, I'll be putting it on Instagram!!

Best, hopefully with an urn...

Photos from Oz Kink Fest Show

Hi A/all!

Yes!! Another AMAZING show was up in lights at Oz Kink Fest in Melbourne on Sept 22 at the big Friday night club party Hellfire Resurrection!

My wonderful co performer Paloma Negra from Paloma Negra Theatre and I took our audience on a journey with shades of contemporary dance, butoh, My customary heavily hacked shibari, latex and shoe fetish!

No 50 Shades of Grey here! lol

I love crafting shows like you've never seen before.

I find SO MUCH Shibari rope bondage show boring, but not Mine.

You NEVER know what you'll see when I take the stage!

We used normal 6mm jute rope... But then when Paloma had the watershed idea of suspension using HEAVY THICK hemp, we just went with it!

I really had a revelation during our show about our prowess together.

Paloma is really a "co-performer" and creative co-conspirator, not a "rope bunny" or a "bottom".

One other thing she is, is THE BOMB.

Thanks Paloma - and thanks SO MUCH to Oz Kink Fest for having us back another year!

Best, up in lights again!
