The exhibition "Liminality" is presenting the works "Liminoids" - a collaborative project between Thale Fastvold and Tanja Thorjussen at Trygve Lie Gallery in New York. Opening Reception, Thursday June 3rd, 6-8 pm.
Liminality is a term originated in anthropology to describe in-between phases and rituals related to different life stages such as birth, coming of age and death. The term is often descriptive of a transformative act or state of mind. This exhibition is a transdisiplinary study of liminality, where information is gathered through research in science, anthropology and mythology.
In this exhibition we will present “Liminoids”, which is a self made term. Here, liminal creatures and places are manifested through polaroid photo by Fastvold and drawings by Thorjussen. The Liminoids are presented as pairs.
Fastvold will exhibit her research project "Kanda Empat" with photography/video/text about rituals in connection to the liminal state of pregnancy and child birth.
Thorjussen has explored the liminal in botany, zoology and mythology through the drawing/installation "Metamorphoses".
