DISMANTLE is a photography book that unravels the rich tapestry of Malawi, challenging preconceived notions about this vibrant country.
Created by Zahir Elias—an eclectic fashion designer, illustrator, drag queen, actor, poet, and stage performer—and Elena Petitti di Roreto, a film director and photographer, the book captures their shared journey through Malawi.
The narrative unfolds from two perspectives: one side explores the traditional village life, celebrating the customs and communal spirit that define Malawi’s cultural roots, while the other side dives into the contemporary youth culture and vibrant gay scene, revealing a bold and progressive side of Malawian society.

By juxtaposing these contrasting yet complementary views, DISMANTLE offers a nuanced and unexpected portrayal of Malawi, moving beyond clichés to present a deeper, more authentic story.
The book invites readers to see Malawi through a fresh lens, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of its diverse identities and evolving narratives.
