Join us at La Nombreuse on 13 February for the launch of artist Simen K. Lambrecht's book The Art of Living Twice, published by Éditions La CAB.

The art of living twice centers on the memory of Cécile, Simen's deceased grandmother, and her 82 years of life in the same small village. As time passes, memories fade, and what remains of her increasingly intertwines with Lambrecht's childhood fantasies and Flemish rural stereotypes. Using a series of letters from her grandmother as a guide, the photographs confront memory as both an imperfect record and a poetic construction—mutable, subjective, and often tinged with nostalgia. Each image serves as both a relic and a requiem, creating a shared utopia where both remain immortal.
