In this deeply poetic and intimate monograph, Joëlle Dubois (b. 1990, Ghent) explores themes such as loss, grief, memory and love. Using symbols, metaphors and allegories, she processes her mother’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis and transforms pain into a cathartic journey. Through a wide variety of media such as paintings, drawings, sculptures and a video installation, Dubois reflects on connection, identity and healing. Raw yet tender, empowering yet vulnerable, this body of work reveals the fleeting nature of life and the resilience of the mother–daughter bond.
