Resumo(s)
The purpose of this theoretical-practical dissertation is to investigate the liminal state as a transition or gap between social positions, often enacted through rituals of passage. In parallel, the employment of liminality as a formal and conceptual device in contemporary practices of sculpture will be mapped out and explored. This dissertation approaches discussions that advance the concept of liminality as a tool at the service of turbidity, ambiguity and the blurring of limits between categories. In the first chapter, a sociological and critical perspective of liminality will be introduced, based on the social discomfort with indeterminate and borderline states, often designated impure. In the second chapter, this borderline position will be approached through the impermanent plasticity of viscous matter, where it will be presented as a liminal materiality par excellence. In this way, it will be developed an art-historical contextualization of the use of materials will that refer to transit, metamorphosis or lack of form, in order to expose the canonical ruptures caused by their uses. In the third chapter, it will be identified, in the practices of three artists, works that advance themes of instability and incompleteness, manifested in choices of unpredictable materials, and in the transposition of these to the installation format. Finally, my artistic practice will be approached in the sense of informing and drawing parallels between the presented research and its plastic manifestations.
