reactjs - Image require with variable path not working

Question

Actually trying to check if file(image) exists to add it to render.

Confused that this code works

let i = 2;
let s = require('../../public' + this.cardData.image.optional_path + '-' + i + '.jpg');

and as a result s = Module

And this one produce an error

let i = 2;
let path = '../../public' + this.cardData.image.optional_path + '-' + i + '.jpg';
let z = require(path);

Error message:

Uncaught Error: Cannot find module '../../public/images/catgory1/images-2.jpg'

Did i missed something ?
