ROPE & POETRY — A Photography Book by ELR
“ERIK LIKES RED—ROPE & POETRY” is a large format (8.5 x 11 Landscape) Photography book. An erotic poetry journey woven through over one hundred high resolution images, Case Bound for your viewing and reading pleasure.
In Japanese, “Shibari” simply means “to tie”. The contemporary meaning of Shibari describes an ancient Japanese artistic form of rope bondage.
In ROPE & POETRY, Erik Adamah examines the relationship between the human form and rope. This Photographer’s journey takes us on an exploration through the vulnerability, tension and inevitable transformation that occurs through the Art of Bind & Release. The viewer/reader is invited to explore the more somatic nature of Erik’s work—Asking one’s self less what it all might mean and more how does the art and poetry make us feel?—How do the syllables sensate and vibrate when being spoken.
Much like the rope itself, the lyrical prose woven into and through this photographic journey explores the abstracts of human nature and all its erotic contradiction.
