Spaces are often shaped by and also reflect the people who inhabit them. These photographs of church buildings in Northern Ireland look at the people who shaped them. A people who are part British and part Irish, yet not wholly either.
Liminal places are moved through on the way to somewhere else, a train station for example isn’t a destination but a place that allows us to transition to the next stage of our journey. So here we have church buildings that are a kind of liminal space, existing only to be moved through on a spiritual journey. They were created to be ignored, appearing almost uncomfortable with receiving attention.
In these images we have a people who are caught between two identities appearing sure of where they came from but less confident of where they are. Here we take time to look at those liminal spaces that, like the people who use them, seem to ask not to be looked at.
Liminal is a high quality limited edition hardback photo book with 96 full colour pages. The book is punctuated by a series of short poems by Paul Hutchinson and a reflection by Bryonie Reid. With an introduction by author and philosopher Peter Rollins and a short essay on faith in the presence of absence by David Capener.
