Covered Fetish Performance Artists
The magazine occasionally profiled or featured the work of performers who merged fetish with theatersuch as shibari suspension acts or domination shows. These art forms are highly stylized performances that often involve elaborate costumes, music, lighting, choreography, and even set design. They may incorporate elements such as bondage, discipline, sadism/masochism, dominance/submission, exhibitionism, foot worship, or humiliation to create an immersive experience for both audience members and participants. However, the focus is always on the performance itself rather than simply presenting fetishistic behaviors in isolation. Performers must be skilled at communicating their intentions to audiences through nonverbal cues, body language, and facial expressions while staying within the bounds of safety protocols established by themselves and any venue they may choose to perform in. Some covered fetish artists have achieved mainstream success, appearing in film, television, and advertising campaigns, demonstrating that this form of expression can transcend its niche origins and find wider appeal among those seeking sensual stimulation. Despite these strides towards acceptance, many practitioners still face discrimination and marginalization based on their choice of expression. This has been especially true for BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) performers, whose cultural appropriation of fetish practices has historically been met with backlash from white communities claiming ownership over these styles. Yet despite these challenges, these performers continue to push boundaries and challenge societal norms with their unapologetic embrace of all things tabooand it's only a matter of time before their talent is fully recognized by the art world at large.
