Hi, I'm Madeleine - a textile artist/maker who also takes photographs and writes stories. Most of my work has its roots in science, maths or science fiction. The name Knot Unktnot has a specific mathematical meaning but it also reflects a lot of of the activity in my studio - knotting/knitting yarn and untangling stuff too. Have a look around the site and if you like what you what you see you can interact with me and my work using the lists below.
