THE LIMINAL ARCHIVE

The Liminal Archive is an art research PhD thesis that proposes to interrogate, in line with artistic practice, the materialization of the spectral in the archival fragments of the historical discourse turned into ruin, through the action of the uncanny and the use of fiction as the medium that seeks to capture and configure – assemble – at the same time, a reality and what is hidden.
