Artists on the edge

Ottawa is on the edge of a velvet revolution — sex-positive performances, fun with masturbation, blowjobs and passion for art, music, writing and the theatre.

These artists may be on the edge of sanity or the edge of discovery, but together they are vibrant, fun and a force to be reckoned with.
