OtaKinbaku is an American rigger.
Era: 2020s
RIGGER · PHOTOGRAPHER
Bay Area / Oakland-based rope artist, nawashi, photographer, performer and educator working as OtaKinbaku / Ota. His Tumblr and Bluesky profiles frame him as a Bay Area / Oakland rope photographer, rigger and Oakland Rope Salon founder. VoxBody's Oakland Rope Salon listing places Ota as host and describes the salon as a small discussion-focused Japanese rope-bondage gathering, with Ota's 2015 Japan lessons and time around Naka Akira and other bakushi treated here as influence / study context rather than formal apprenticeship. Filthy Studios lists Ota in its educator / production-support crew, and Twisted Windows lists Ota among its San Francisco Bay Area rope troupe performers.
