Abstract
“Objects of Liminality” documents my life, at this point and time, through the sculptural medium. Entering into a rigorous path of academic study of art after 30 years as a practicing artist has had a profound effect on my life, my worldview and most importantly my artwork. This thesis body of work is comprised of objects informed by this passage into a “Liminal State” as student. I have chosen to express this passage in the artwork through internal force acting on forms surface to imply change or transcendence, and the dissecting or disassociating of form to convey change or transformation through reorganization. These objects speak directly of my personal journey. If successful, they will speak to the journeys, and subsequent trials, common to many.
