Jeffrey E. Owen (5 May 1946 - 3 September 2013), better known by his alias Jeff Gord,[1][2] was a bondage artist and photographer.[3][4] who specialized in the forniphilia subgenre, a form of objectifying sexual bondage which involves the subject being tightly bound and expected to stay immobile for a prolonged period.[5] He described his work as being for women's pleasure, saying "I feed on women's pleasure".[6]
Background[edit]
Born in the United Kingdom,[7] Gord described himself as a "mad bondage scientist".[8] He initially founded his own publishing company in 1992, publishing erotic books specialising in bondage stories. In 1997, he launched and maintained the website "House of Gord" on the subject.[9][10][11] His influences included Robert Bishop, Eric Stanton and John Willie.[12]
He stated that his first interest in fetish had been when, as a small child, he saw an actress on stage wearing tight lycra, and wished he could tie her up so that she could not move.[13]
Aaron Kunin has described Gord's vision of the human body as "as spectacular and thorough in its commitment to objectification as Busby Berkeley’s."[10]
Death[edit]
Gord died in 2013, at the age of 67. [7][14]
