In Search of Alluvium is a conversation between an artist and the Los Angeles River, an exchange that takes place at the River’s liminal space, documenting the interplay of the natural world and the human world. Author and photographer Avital Oehler returned to the Los Angeles River again and again in an attempt to understand how it fits into the metropolis, and how the metropolis fits into it.
In Search of Alluvium is also an experiment in book design. Oehler’s minimal aesthetic not only questions the book medium itself, breaking it down to its essential parts, but also lays bare the necessity of seeing the River at this pivotal moment in its history – torn between those who want to rewild it, those who want to freely live at its banks, and those who are concerned with their property values.
