Sweet Kiss, Salt Water
by Irati Dojura, Embera Chami, Columbia Irati Dojura says: “The little older sister kisses with emotion her younger sister, who is only a few months old. She is the one who bathes her in the river every day, she is the one who wipes her sweet tears in the salty water, making the water sweet as well. The genuine instant, evidence of love, sisterhood, all dissolved in the clean and transparent water that innocence brings with it from childhood.” The two sisters are from the village of Chidima, Choco, and belong to the Embera Eyabida ethnic group.
