Key of the Satyr - an erotic rite of passage + art expo

🗝️ The Key of the Satyr

For the Libertines

An evening of kinbaku, butoh, ritual, and mythosomatic delight. Enter a realm of erotic storytelling and myth-making.

You will encounter a gallery of psychosexual erotic art that tugs at your skin, and strangers will be accomplices on the journey of your Un-becoming.

When the defenses of modernity and sophistication are set down… when you let the tale enter you… the myth can take hold and become your teacher.

Who Holds the Keys?

Not you… Not anymore.

The Satyrs await.

Half-beast, half-man, threshold dwellers who drag mortals into the unmediated pulse of life. This is where Unverified Gnosis can emerge.

The Satyr is a liminal guide toward unfiltered, authentic expression. A psychopomp of the body. They remind us that Eros, in its purest form, is neither performative nor transactional. It is untamed life-force itself.

Japanese rope bondage, butoh dance, bouffon theatre, immersive mythical rituals, and sadomasochism as art.
