More about Photism Studio
Photism Studio (幻社工作室) is a Chengdu-based Shibari studio operating through both public and private events.
Our public calendar features a diverse range of gatherings: "Echo of Ties" (結ノ音), a weekly Shibari salon; "Drifting Cord" (浮繩), an exclusive salon tailored for women; "Budding Glow" (從最簡單的開始), an introductory workshop designed for beginners; and "Threads of Light" (織と光), a rope bondage photography session. We also host masterclasses, live performances, and open practice sessions. For a more tailored experience, our private services offer one-on-one coaching, private experiences, bespoke photography sessions, and studio rentals.
Dedicated to promoting rope culture and fostering a healthy local community, Photism Studio is a space where we gather through the medium of Shibari to practice trust, explore boundaries, and listen to one another. Welcome to our journey.
