Nobuyoshi Araki

Nobuyoshi Araki known sometimes as simply 'Araki' is a japanise photographer and video maker. his work often controversal and often very pornographic. However the images ive been looking at is his photos of bondage. He uses ropes to tie up women and position. It shows how powerless they are and degrades them, It may not make sence why i would look at his work, but it is to go along with the feeling that self harm is about control and that it is the thing controling you. Like in the photos, there are ropes binding the subjects, they are almost like puppets and are helpless.
