Market Day, Tineghir, Morocco, 2006

Selling cattle is a family event at Tineghir’s weekly market. Sellers bring their products to this market from the entire region. This truck carries its bovine cargo below and the family of sellers above. I was drawn to the gesture of the man in red – he grasps the railing with one hand while seemingly blessing the transaction going on below with the other hand. Four other family members arrange themselves casually around him. The sale is incongruously taking place on three levels. The sellers are high, the buyers low, and the confined product is caught in between.
