A book about loss, mourning, missing and rituals. How can we keep a loved one close to us? Based on specific works of art, Hagenaars discusses the possible ways in which someone can ‘live on’ and the context of this commemoration. How does commemoration relate to ideas about life and death, to religion, spirituality or the social context?
Hanne Hagenaars: “How to remember someone is a subject that has fascinated me for a long time. Death is the great unknown in our lives; everyone is a little afraid of it. Death makes those left behind feel lonely, there is sadness and often words are lacking to talk about death. Loss and grief are invisible, how do you shape them? How do you make sure you don’t lose someone completely, how do you keep them alive? How can we grieve?” IN DUTCH!
