In Between Shadows and Noise, Amber Jamilla Musser explores sensation as a Black feminist method for aesthetic interpretation and criticism, using the body's knowledge to access the unrepresentable.

Between Shadows and Noise, Amber Jamilla Musser delves into the realm of sensation as a Black feminist approach to aesthetic interpretation and critique. By drawing upon the knowledge held within the body, Musser seeks to access the unrepresentable, challenging the dominant narratives of art and culture. Through a thoughtful exploration of Blackness, empire, and colonialism, Musser examines a diverse range of artworks, including Ming Smith's Flamingo Fandango, Jordan Peeles' Us, Katherine Dunham's Shango, Samita Sinhas' This ember state, Titus Kaphars' A Pillow for Fragile Fictions, and Teresita Fernández's Puerto Rico (Burned). By engaging with these works from an embodied and situated perspective, Musser aims to grapple with the questions and sensations of racialization and difference that they evoke. Throughout her work, Musser reimagines the relationships between race, representation, and politics by dwelling in spaces and concepts that defy Western norms of representation, objectivity, and logic. In doing so, she explores alternative ways of being and knowing that exceed predetermined parameters, offering a blueprint for sensing, imagining, and living otherwise. This groundbreaking approach to aesthetics provides a rich and provocative lens through which to understand the world and challenges us to think beyond the limitations imposed by mainstream discourse.
