Thorn Faustus

My name is Thorn and I am a multi-skilled performer, model and event creator. I perform fire performance and alt/gore burlesque/performance with a heavy use of gore and sexual energy. I create all my concepts, props and costumes myself. I’m heavily inspired by monsters, horror, sex and heavy metal. Through my art, I celebrate the deepest and darkest parts of myself through dance, tease and props. I create events for fellow performers to take part in, creating jobs for as many creatives as I can, such as pole dancers, fire performers, burlesque performers, models and even bands. My best achievements are tied to my events I run by myself as Venom Promotions (@venom_promotions), where I bring in hundreds of people per event to revel in the alternative scene and watch a selection of striking performers. In Venom Fest, I have managed to make a stage for the weird, unique and sexy, where we can perform, be safe and celebrated. I throw blood at the audience and they lap it up!
