Through video and photography, KNKI Uncovered unveils brief windows into the lives of people involved in the BDSM/Leather lifestyle. The goal of this project is to present a healthy, positive view of the kink community and help assuage feelings of shame and guilt many lifestylers have. We also hope to dispel common misconceptions outsiders have regarding S&M.

Everyone has their own experiences with BDSM, and KNKI Uncovered celebrates our differences and encourages us to embrace our kinkiness without fear of shame or stigma. BDSM has traditionally been hidden in the shadows, but KNKI Uncovered is a place lifestylers can have a voice and step out in the open.
