This article suggests a theoretical lens of “mundane abjection” as a new conceptualization of liminality as a methodologically and humanistically transformative concept. Thinking with Julia Kristeva’s post-structural conception of the subject as “always in-process,” this article traverses the inherent and transformative element of abjection in relation to the perceived ontological challenges of methodological liminalities. It posits liminality as a potentiating conceptual space for new ontologies in relation to the human “I.” Throughout, the performance, that is the occurrence, of mundane abjection is illustrated as a critical, revelatory and necessary process within this ontological transformation of methodology and the human “I.”
