WHO WE ARE

WHO WE ARE

What if every scar, every bruise, and every moment of vulnerability was not a flaw but a story of resilience?

At Violet Knees, we celebrate the beauty in imperfection, transformation, and self-expression. What started as a personal Tumblr blog has grown into a thoughtful space where creativity, storytelling, and reflection come together.

Our name is inspired by the act of kneeling—both literally and symbolically. Kneeling signifies humility, effort, and devotion, while the colour violet evokes delicacy, creativity, and depth.

It’s more than just a name — it’s a philosophy and a way of being.

AUTHENTICITY

Every word, whether messy or beautiful, deserves to be told.

CREATIVITY

Art, travel, and culture are reflections of human emotion and experience.

CONVERSATIONS

We aim to connect with others and find meaning in our shared experiences.

WHAT YOU'LL FIND ON VIOLETKNEES.COM

  • In the ‘Heart’ category of our website, you’ll find thoughtful essays on art, music, and fashion, all written by our founder three times a week. As a passionate lover of the arts, she shares her reflections on the intersection of creativity and self-expression, offering fresh perspectives on the arts and how they shape our world.

    We believe that the arts are more than just skills or techniques, they are expressions of the soul. Whether carefully honed or still evolving, each piece is deeply personal, impossible to replicate, and uniquely its own. From the intricacies of a song to the ever-changing landscapes of fashion, every creative endeavour tells a story waiting to be heard.

  • In the ‘Mind’ category of our website, you'll find in-depth explorations of politics, society, philosophy, human rights, business, and economics, offering fresh perspectives on the forces that shape our world. Our founder curates and writes thought-provoking pieces multiple times a week, with extra essays on free topics that don’t really fit into any category we focus on every Saturday.

    We believe that ideas are meant to evolve, challenge, and inspire. Whether discussing ethical dilemmas, global trends, or personal philosophies, this space is dedicated to open dialogue, intellectual curiosity, and meaningful conversation, as understanding the world begins with questioning it.

  • In the ‘Travel’ category of our website, you’ll find immersive stories, cultural reflections, and unique perspectives from the places our founder visits as a passionate globetrotter. She loves sharing her experiences and the hidden gems of each destination. More than just itineraries and destination guides, we dive deep into the cultures and stories of the countries where we've left our footprints.

    We believe that travel is not just about movement; it’s about curiosity, perspective, and discovery. Whether it’s the charm of an unfamiliar city, the vibrancy of a bustling market, or the quiet beauty of an unmarked trail, every journey holds a story waiting to be told

“Violet Knees began as my personal space for thoughts, art, and storytelling. Over time, it became a community to shelter my experiences and reflections. I hope you find something here that speaks to you.”
