A River Named Love Kozieja by Emanuel Bovet and Orane Mertz is a contemplative book that explores the blurred space between Russia and China. The authors immerse us in landscapes of porous borders where each photo becomes an enigma, capturing fragments of anonymous lives and fleeting stories. This is not a traditional travel diary, but a notebook of captured moments and open questions, a journal of fragmented images where banality and poetry blend into harmonious chaos.
The book bears witness to a reality that is both tender and troubled, between flashes of life and the latent shadows of war. The scenes—an old woman, torn posters, dancing children, lovers under a pink sky—depict a daily life that is both ordinary and sacred, inviting the reader to contemplate these fragments of life like memories that still vibrate.
This “river” of love does not seek to explain, but to awaken personal resonances and introspection within us. Each image becomes a gateway to incomplete stories, a current that invites us to let ourselves be carried away, to discover our own flaws through these modest and vibrant scenes of life.
