Charting Liminality: Artists Books Navigate the In-Between

Charting Liminality showcases artist books that use cartographic, or map drawing, imagery to navigate the vagueness and uncertainty inherent in moments of change. From the worry of being caught between two countries to the anticipation of new possibilities, from the overwhelming search for comfort after loss to the thrill of falling in love, the works invite reflection on the spaces in-between.

Special Collections Born Digital Poetry Fellow Christa Kileff organized the Charting Liminality exhibition.
