Welcome to My World of Underground Photography

Hi there — I'm Toronawa a.k.a. Toro, a Tokyo-based underground artist.

This site is where I share the work I create, where I document the raw stuff and the subversive energy that I find at Tokyo’s dimly lit spaces.

Rope

Rope is at the centre of most things I create. Started learning Japanese rope, Kinbaku in 2019.

In 2023, after three years of study at Milkyway Tokyo under Waka-sensei, I became their first non-Japanese rope instructor. I now perform regularly at my weekly event there, the Toro Kinbaku Salon, where I showcase live performances.
