Motion In Limine
The term "in limine" means "on or at the threshold" or "in the beginning". Also, a motion in limine is a pretrial motion that asks a judge to exclude certain evidence or arguments from a trial.
Heather Neilson's contributions to "Motion In Limine" reflect her engagement with the idea of being on the cusp of change amidst uncertainty and confusion, both in the collective context and on a personal level. The question contemplated is what to leave behind in order to move forward. This body of work articulates a yearning for balance and a clear perspective of the future, especially during transitional and liminal phases.
