"Lisa Ross's photographs of Islamic holy sites were created over the course of a decade on journeys to China's Xinjiang region. These images show shrines created during pilgrimages, many of which have been maintained continuously over several centuries. The shrines, adorned with small devotional offerings that mark a prayer or visit, are poignant representations of collective memory and a pacifistic faith, and endure despite vulnerability to natural forces of sand, heat, and powerful winds. This volume emerges at a critical time, as modernization and new policies for development of China's far west bring about rapid, extreme, and irrevocable change. Many of the sites in Ross's work are threatened by political and economic pressures." Photographs and preface by Lisa Ross; essays by Alexandre Papas and Beth Citron; interview with Rahila Dawut conducted by Su M. Manzi.
