You can just tell they're waiting for their blowjobs in this Kink scene, but they'll be disappointed because this isn't a Kink.com scene... this is performance art!
Image source: Artnet.com, you can visit the article I got this from by clicking here. And you really should because it's got more photos of the performance and a lengthy interview with Emma Sulkowicz, the performance artist getting tied up.
This story starts back in 2016, when Sulkowicz was an art student at Columbia University. She filed an a rape complaint against another student and Columbia didn't investigate it to her satisfaction. (I don't know the facts of the case so can't judge it, but I generally feel that when women make accusations of rape there should at the very least be a rigorous investigation.) So Sulkowicz turned to her art to express her feelings about the situation, which turned into The Mattess Project in which Emily carried a dorm mattress around with her on campus for a year in protest to what had happened to her.\
Flash forward to 2017, Emily has graduated and she's still cheesed about Columbia's complaint so she created a new art project entitled "The Ship Is Sinking" in conjunction with the Whitney Independent Studies Project. It involves her being publicly tied up by "Master Whitney" then verbally abused and tortured while she is tied up. Master Whitney represents all the online and real life people who mocked and tormented her when her story came out. I haven't read any reviews of the show, but I am dead sure it was thought-provoking
She also talks about future plans to open an art sex dungeon where she and some friends will educate people on consensual and nonconsensual kink. Sounds like it will be thought-provoking, which is what Sulkowicz definitely wants for people.
I wish Sulkowicz well and hope for her future success. Because the world is a more interesting place with her in it, doing her thing.
