RIGGER · DESIGNER · PERFORMER

British-born, Brooklyn-based designer, performer, rope artist and educator. Interview Magazine profiled Valentine Amartey in 2013 as a British-born, New York-based designer whose couture rope / knitwear work overlaps with performance and who taught rope-bondage classes at SHAG in Williamsburg. ShibariNews preserves the same Brooklyn educator / performer framing, while Moxy Williamsburg's February 14, 2024 calendar independently bills a `Shibari Bondage Performance by Valentine Amartey` for SHAG's `A Night of Eros`. documented as a compact New York rope-art / design entry without extrapolating broader collaborator or lineage relationships.
