L’Odeur de l’Inde — Paolo Roversi, Pier Paolo Pasolini

A chance encounter with a place becomes a dialogue across decades. Sparked by staying in the same Cochin hotel as Pasolini in 1961, this work merges text and image into a layered meditation on India. Roversi’s photographs, rendered in muted sepia and soft focus, transform everyday scenes into luminous, suspended visions. Published with Pasolini’s complete text, the book bridges literature and photography, extending a singular gaze through time and culminating in a search for a figure once encountered.
