As they set off for Madagascar in 2003, photographer Max Pam and
writer Stephen Muecke adopted as their guiding principle the idea
of contingency--central to which is the conscious embrace of risk
and chance. In doing so, they established a new aesthetic in which
image and text are inextricably linked to the notion of
possibility. This stunning collection of photos and essays is the
result of their vision, collectively illustrating the beauty and
wisdom on offer in one of the world's poorest nations. A
contribution to the wave of new ethnography exemplified by Michael
Taussig and Kathleen Stewart, these encounters with events, images,
and experimental writing dramatize thoughts and feelings in the
ongoing construction of place.
