UNKTUKNO is an emerging self-taught visual artist based in Porto, Portugal, who sculpts darkness with digital light. Originally from Brașov, Romania, UNKTUKNO discovered her enthusiasm for the arts at a young age and studied contemporary dance. With a focus on both art and technology, she specialised in conceiving, choreographing and producing interactive multimedia dance performances. UNKTUKNO is also a performer and a teacher of contemporary dance.

In the here and now, she describes herself as a digital weaver who experiments within the realm of abstraction, creative coding & ai, drawing inspiration from the powerful symbols and patterns woven into Romanian traditional textiles.
