Expressive Normaliminalities

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Images and souvenirs display the conflicting desires for the breaking of taboos and the incorporation of traditional role expectations regarding gender and cultural norms. During the time spent at the Ballermann region, the tourists are able to violate rules and norms which restrict their freedom in their ‘real lives’. Taking their souvenirs to a different context allows the connotations of these souvenirs to switch from excitingly expressive to strikingly absurd.
