Kink and Draw

Drawn to (and in) kink.

About this Event

Kink and Draw

We’ve been so privileged to work with iconic artist-photographer, curator, archivist and activist Ajamu X in offering life drawing in his South London creative haven. Every session has been a real success for drawers and models alike.

Since July 2025, kink-and-draw life drawing has been a part of the Ajamu Studios experience, featuring a different model each month bringing their own, special style of art-nude kink.

In November, we look forward to welcoming Roy Joseph Butler to the life room.

“As a gay man, I have felt the need to differentiate how I experience my body from heteronormative conventions. But, how I express myself through my body is how I feel we all should (and need to), regardless of gender and sexual identity - full of quirk, kink and fierceness.“

As with our other life drawing experiences at Ajamu Studios, Kink and Draw accentuates the critical work around LGBTQIA+ experiences that is so much a part of Ajamu’s body-positive work, welcoming life models who accentuate and celebrate the thrust of that work and their own inimitable Queerness, regardless of sexuality.

This is an inclusive, accessible drawing experience for all levels of ability, because, frankly, everyone can draw. Believe it!

Participants are free to dress in their favourite gear - kink, cosplay etc. - and a changing area will be available.

Boards, paper and materials are also very much included, but feel free to bring your own. Dry materials only can be used in the studio.

Hosted by Roy Joseph Butler, with guidance on where to begin and how to continue.
