Liminality are a formless state

Communication is only possible in the state in between, and this formless state is the most busy place.

Liminality

Liminality (from the Latin word līmen, meaning "a threshold" is a psychological, neurological, or metaphysical subjective state, conscious or unconscious, of being on the "threshold" of or between two different existential planes, as defined in neurological psychology (a "liminal state") and in the anthropological theories of ritual by such writers as Arnold van Gennep and Victor Turner. As developed by van Gennep (and later Turner), the term is used to “refer to in-between situations and conditions that are characterized by the dislocation of established structures, the reversal of hierarchies, and uncertainty regarding the continuity of tradition and future outcomes”. Although initially developed as a means to analyze the middle stage in ritual passages, it is “now considered by some to be a master concept in the social and political sciences writ large". In this sense, it is very useful when studying “events or situations that involve the dissolution of order, but which are also formative of institutions and structures.”
Liminality “...served not only to identify the importance of in-between periods, but also to understand the human reactions to liminal experiences: the way liminality shaped personality, the sudden foregrounding of agency, and the sometimes dramatic tying together of thought and experience”.
'The attributes of liminality or of liminal personae ("threshold people") are necessarily ambiguous'. One's sense of identity dissolves to some extent, bringing about disorientation, but also the possibility of new perspectives. Turner posits that, if liminality is regarded as a time and place of withdrawal from normal modes of social action, it potentially can be seen as a period of scrutiny for central values and axioms of the culture where it occurs. - one where normal limits to thought, self-understanding, and behavior are undone. In such situations, “the very structure of society [is] temporarily suspended”

More project thoughts..

The interesting thing for me is what happens between the viewer and the work, the space in between, the boundary between what exists and what is not there. I want to open up more to the idea that there is more than one vision and show the inarticulate. Beyond the forms, structures, systems and categories is the formless. You could say that we people in a way are afraid for dizziness. That is, if the world is not seen or arranged as weare accustomed we become dizzy, the form becomes formless and create disorder. But I think there is a tension in this intermediate state. By showing this intermediate state where the inarticulate and the formless is, so challenged in a way cuts and borders and a movement process around a new way of looking arise. The story and the meaning is not longer about what we see, but instead about the feeling of what we see and how/why we see as we do.
