I am a multidisciplinary artist from Gibraltar, who explores the concept of "Liminal Space".
Final Project
The Space In-Between
My work seeks to navigate the term ‘Liminality’ through embodying my experience of living in a state of in-between two points; Gibraltar and Loughborough.
The term ‘Liminality’ refers to a state or condition of being in-between, on the threshold, or in a transitional phase.
Since moving abroad to further my studies I have experienced a sense of disconnection when it comes to the feeling of belonging. Therefore, my final project aims to recreate an atmospheric sensation of disorientation through immersive psychedelic pieces of moving imagery.

The Journey of Process
A main focus within in my practice is the importance of both materiality and process. My journey within this project began with creating autonomous paintings through the unconventional means of blocks of coloured ice cubes. This encompassed the term of ‘liminality’ from the context of the material transitioning within its physical conditions.
These pieces were later then recorded against the artificial lighting of a light box. This enhanced luminosity of work allowing it achieve a transient aura. These recordings were then manipulated using the Adobe software Premiere Pro to create sections of immersive imagery.
Finally, using these captivating abstract sequences I then overlaid and combined my own footage of both Gibraltar and Loughborough in reference to accepting not belonging to one singular place but floating between them.
