About Artemis
<Artemis Hunter> is an artist, a photographer, and student
of erotic rope bondage located in Atlanta, Georgia.
She was introduced to Japanese Rope Bondage in January of 2005 and was
immediately fascinated with being in rope and the challenge of
controlling them artistically. Described
as sexually liberated, Artemis uses rope as a
tool to share with open
minded and inquisitive people erotic ideas about unexpected excitements
that await them in the BDSM world.
Artemis is a founding member
of Knot Guilty (www.knotguilty.org), a
Metropolitan Atlanta Community of unique
people who enjoy incorporating Rope Bondage into their personal adult
play. She spends much of her time
gathering knowledge with some of the world's finest rope artists so that she may
help bring those ideas (and sometimes the artist themselves) back to the
South to foster interest in shibari and rope bondage art.
Artemis is also an ardent supporter of the
National Coalition for Sexual Freedom. There are things that a woman knows once she's reached a certain position in
her life. There's a point when she is comfortable
in her own skin, with her life, with the lessons learned, with skills
gathered yet still chases and invites adventures that entice and allure. There's also a point when she's also called
to inspire, foster, and share those lessons with the next generation of
players.
Welcome.

“Thanks
for allowing me to be your hair bondage demo
dummy and thanks for getting distracted in the process <g>.
I attended the meeting with the hopes of learning something about ropes
(which i did!) but i floated back home with surprising memories and
hopeful fantasies!” – a willing victim.
- January 2007 - Augusta Iron
Rose Society (AIRS) Event in
Augusta, Georgia, AIRS presents
“Knotty Night: An evening of Erotic Bondage with
Artemis Hunter”
“Whew!!
It may have been cold outside, but let me
tell you – it was steamy HOT in the old dungeon last night!! Those of
us who were lucky enough to be there were enthralled with the sensuous
artistry and sheer exuberance of Artemis Hunter. This lovely lady gave
a presentation that was exciting, educational, and highly
entertaining!! I'm sure that a lot of the folks there were inspired to
try some new rope techniques on their subs when they got home (along
with some "other" extracurricular activity – LOL).” –
Lou, Co-Chairman, AIRS Board
“Frankly, it's a good thing, it was cool out for Knotty Night-
[Our local volunteers] as all-too-willing subjects were certainly a
match for Artemis' fiery, frenetic presentation. It was difficult to
discern which of them was having the best time. (Think three-way tie.
[:D] ) All in all, it was a terrific extended seminar in kink; though
no fan of ropes, the enthusiasm and interplay was a real joy to behold.
If you missed it for anything less than a really good reason, too bad.”
– Dave, AIRS Attendee

mysteries. Learn more about rope than
