Liminal Spaces, Childhood Memories, and Voids – This project explores the societal relevance of the #nostalgia aesthetic phenomenon and its emotional impact on Generation Z. It investigates why TikTok sees a resurgence of content that evokes childhood memories as part of uncanny, often unsettling visual trends such as #liminalspaces, #weirdcore, and #dreamcore. Through a journey into my own liminalized childhood memories—captured on video by my father—the project unfolds on TikTok, where these once personal recordings are stripped of context and re-shared by strangers. In this transformation, they become collective memory containers, absorbing feelings of loss, longing, and disorientation. The work reflects how, in a chaotic and crisis-driven postmodern world, many in Gen Z turn to digital spaces as a way to process hidden anxieties—using aesthetics as both escape and emotional language.
