How Liminalism Became the Defining Aesthetic of Our Time
Hyperallergic’s article "How Liminalism Became the Defining Aesthetic of Our Time" examines the rise of “liminalism” as a contemporary visual and cultural trend focused on transitional, in-between spaces and moods. The piece situates the aesthetic in the context of widespread online circulation and contemporary anxieties, arguing that images of empty corridors, vacant rooms, and ambiguous environments have become especially resonant. The excerpt provided does not include the author’s name, publication date, or specific examples and figures cited in the full article. It is presented as an interpretive analysis of a dominant internet-era aesthetic rather than a report on a single exhibition or event.
