Title: Threads of Sand, Scar & Scripture: Sudanese Art & the Ethics of Witnessing (A Post-Interpretive Study)
Author: Dorian Vale
ISBN 978-1-0698203-3-4 | Published by Museum of One, Canada
Abstract:
This book presents a sustained philosophical and critical inquiry into Sudanese art under conditions of war, displacement, and historical fragmentation, advancing Post-Interpretive Criticism (PIC) as an ethical alternative to dominant interpretive frameworks in contemporary art discourse. Rather than treating artworks as objects to be decoded, explained, or culturally translated for external audiences, this study repositions the critic as a witness in proximity, one who resists extraction, narrative closure, and symbolic appropriation.
