Origin[]
Seiu Ito (3 March 1882 – 28 January 1961), was a Japanese painter, recognized today as "the father of modern kinbaku". His technique for depiction of Edo period tortures was to bind his model in various ways, have the photographs taken, and use them as inspiration for his paintings.
Kinbaku is a Japanese style of bondage or BDSM which involves tying a person up using simple yet visually intricate patterns, usually with several pieces of thin rope. The allusion is to the use of hemp rope for restraining prisoners, as a symbol of power, in the same way that stocks or manacles are used in a Western BDSM context. Due to the manipulation of body parts using rope, it is common, for models or participants to be fully naked and the art form regularly incorporates aspects of BDSM such as erotic humiliation. It may be used for restraint as well as solely being a visual.
Effects[]
Will form intricate knotted patterns around a subject that tighten when jostled around or an escape is attempted. To ensure obedience, the ropes will rip through clothing and coil their limbs around into an unusual or difficult to maintain position, causing numbness and embarrassment from the half-nude folding.
