From squeaky ducky paddles to exquisite rope art Muffy's creative journey is anything but ordinary. The owner of UK BDSM brand Against-TheGrain, Muffy is an intermediate rope switch who's turned shibari into something playful, painful, and unexpectedly meditative: colouring books for rope lovers.
Created in collaboration with 7 artists across the UK, USA, and Australia, these books transform real riggers and rope bottoms into expressive, erotic art meant to be felt, not followed.
In this episode, Mya and Fox dig into:
- Turning rope into interactive art
- Capturing erotic anguish on the page
- The challenges of building a global creative collaboration
- Why these images are about interpretation, not instruction
- What colouring adds to the shibari experience
- And the hosts delight at seeing their own rope images brought to life
