I agree it's an eerie photo, but I'm not sure if it's a liminal space (my opinion). I like it though

I think the dark and seemingly endless hallway is what makes it liminal. Plus the oversized plant & eerie juxtaposition of living room furniture mixed with the clinical signs above the doors

Yeah, I think you're right. But like hazeebabee mentioned, the juxtaposition of the living room furniture mixed with the long and dark hallway gave me enough of a subliminalspace vibe to post it here.
