Triptychon III (2022)
Chapter III of HardWerk’s Triptychon series delivers on the numbers in lead performer Sulema Vasquez’s first ever gang bang: three cocks slowly roused to rapt attention during a tender bondage session; a screen split into one, two and three perspectives, infinite nuances, a singular desire; and one rigger and several lengths of rope to bind it all together. But – as this format proves once more, this time in its most languid and meditative installment yet – a gang bang is not math but alchemy. Where attention should be divided, pleasure is instead multiplied, where the pace slows down, intensity – intent itself – is heightened, and where twists of knots should restrict and restrain, each whisper of rope over skin speaks of something liberated, something sensual and something sacred.
