She can deploy a dizzying array of talents - from video, to painting, to embroidery, to ink works, to installations and sewing - and the multiplicity of techniques responds to an infinite number of themes that sketch out an imaginary world so abundant that it remains elusive, in the sense that it does not lend itself to any enumeration or, above all, to any classification. And so it is up to each visitor to imagine stories, to establish links, to tell themselves stories. To unfold his or her imagination in relation to that of Nandre, who, like a bird tapping at her window, invites dialogue. © Héloïse Faure Practical information Our Lady of the Rose Hospital, Place Alix de Rosoit 1 7860 Lessines Our Lady of the Rose Hospital

Practical information

Our Lady of the Rose Hospital

A magical and timeless place: one of the oldest and notably conserved hospitals in Europe!

Founded in 1242, the Notre-Dame à la Rose Hospital is one of the last examples of a complete autarkic hospital site with its farm, gardens, icehouse and cemetery, next to the conventual and hospitable buildings. He is the witness of the mode of operation of the hospitals of the Middle Ages.

This Hôtel-Dieu is exceptional for the state of conservation of the entire site, the diversity of buildings and the wealth of artistic, pharmaceutical and medical collections, presented in their authentic setting. A Hôtel-Dieu was a hospital that provided medical care to soldiers and to people who were too poor to be cared for at home.
