In the process of Liquefaction is a master thesis project developed at the FHNW HGK Visual communication department, is an investigation of the depictions and uses of metaphors to help into the understanding of the society we live in and give a new insight through theory and visual practice, in the metaphor of “ Liquid modernity ” by Z. Bauman.This wants to be an investigation by looking at specific authors and qualities of metaphors, like the embodiment property by G. Lakoff and the concept of absolute metaphors by H. Blumenberg. For a clearer vision of possible depictions of society through images and diagrams, we dwell on the analysis of the use of metaphors with the support of models such as the Rhizome system and the Ant Theory, to then focus on the interpretation proposed by Z. Bauman, who sees the postmodern society as “ In the process of liquefaction ”.The meaning of “ Liquid Modernity “ is slowly unfolded and tested on in the visual domain through printed and digital explorations for the proposal of a video installation concept, based on the transformation of the linguistic metaphor into images. The installation is accompanied by a risograph booklet and is visible on the webpage: www.process.liquid-archive.com
