I have been presented with a Golden Flying Penis Statue to celebrate my contribution to the world through the medium of Cabaret Performance, that presents sexuality in a postive and playful way.
I have a 15 years career thus far and am only just getting warmed up ... wait till you see what I have in the pipeline!!
Thank You to Tuppy Owens and the Erotic Awards. To find out more about the event and the Outsiders Charity it supports please see their Website Here.

At Sommerset house to model a hat for my friend Justin Smith Esquire .... Not the one I am wearing ....
A Cute one with Cat Ears .... Meooowwww !!!

"The first day of London Fashion Week saw the opening of Hedonism, sponsored by Royal Ascot and curated by Stephen Jones. The event celebrates the best of emerging British Milliners: Piers Atkinson, Charlie Le Mindu, J Smith Esquire, Noel Stewart & William Chambers"
Papped by the Guardian Newspaper whilst waiting for my holy sacred pass that will let me past the clip boarded fashion mafia.

EMPRESS STAH IN ZERO GRAVITY |
|
Ok so it is not the over arching grace of Deep Space ... More like crashing around in the confines of a tin can (read: Space Ship) ... but none the less .... I did it : ) !!

'THE STORY OF THE I' @ Borderline Biennial, France |
|
In September 2011 I created a new piece of work for the 'Boderline Biennial- Survive the Apocalypse'
month long event at 'The Abode of Chaos' in France.
George Bataille's 'The Story of the Eye' was the theme for the weekend of performances that I was involved in, and so I worked with imagery from the book as well the themes of Apocalypse and Chaos .... my favourite invention is the new eyeball butt plug that I can actually perform an aerial routine with, while it is inserted !!
Here is a documentary video of the whole weekend .... my show 'The Story of the I' along with an impromtu Interview, is featured at about 37 minutes in and I also appear at the end with a performance of the 'Queen of the Night'.
WARNING - Very Explicit Content and Adult Themes
