Petite Pretzel is a rope switch from New York City. She has been presenting shibari since 2019 at Anatomie Studio London, as well as at other UK venues (KinkFest UK, Oxford Rope Bight, Tangled Festival Derby, Edinburgh Rope Showcase), and abroad in the USA (Temple NYC), Greece (Athens Shibari), Germany (Eurix), and Sweden (Stockholm Pride). She has performed live for Shambala Festival, Pinky Promise, Riposte Queer Art Rave, Fox Badge and Rabbithole Club. Her commercial rigging includes music video credits (Charli XCX, Christine + the Queens), art gallery installation (Elizabeth Xi Bauer gallery), fashion photography and full-length film. She lives in Bethnal Green with her cat, who loves ropes just as much as she does.
