This book is about the ways we make sense of the constant changes and interchanges of webs of meaning and being to which we are all connected. Working from textual, visual, historical, and contemporary fieldworks, each chapter presents a unique exercise on challenges of thinking through the figurations of imaginaries into their aesthetic forms.
