Cat Mason

Cat Mason is a German rigger.

Era: 2000s

RIGGER · PHOTOGRAPHER

Stuttgart-based rigger, photographer, rope model and educator whose work combines shibari with art photography. Mason describes this approach as Romantic Bondage, centering the partner's comfort, emotion and sense of being held rather than conventional BDSM framing. Her official project guide presents more than twenty years of rope and photography experience and offers individual and group coaching, workshops, shows and commissioned shoots. Stuttgart-Schwarz separately documents her long-running event photography and flyer work for the Our Darkness party series.
