About the Open Call

In Between Knots is a community platform and publication exploring home as ongoing, lived entanglement. The second issue, A Soft Undoing, focuses on moments of loosening and repair. Drawing from thinkers like Tim Ingold, Kader Attia, and Saidiya Hartman, the issue asks how repair binds us to one another and how pauses or gaps can be forms of care. The project welcomes diverse forms including poetry, prose, textile-based work, collage, maps, and walking scores. It is an independent DIY project.
