Liminalism

Following on from Based Upon’s award-winning book Manual, Liminalism captures twenty years of the London artist. Presented as a non-linear work where viewers are invited to explore the pages through live indexing, Liminalism offers a collection of thought-provoking visual pairings that document Based Upon’s exploration in global landscapes and the epic sculptural works that result from its process. It includes an introduction by Meagan Kelly Horsman, the Managing Director of Christie’s Middle East.

Becoming a philosophical treatise, Liminalism illustrates that truth exists not only in those things which can be named, but in the apparent space between them. Readers are invited to allow the images to act as edges between which a connective tissue can be found. In bringing awareness to the liminal space between these pairings, each viewer creates their own exhibition, and the artist, a poetic reflection on life as a creator.
