The Umbilical Vein — Mother and Daughter Share Their Playful Photographs from the 1990s
The Umbilical Vein is the name of a peculiar collection of pictures from the personal archive of Marilène Coolens and Lisa de Boeck, a Belgian mother and daughter artist duo that goes by the name Memymom.
The images were taken between 1990 and 2003, and show a young Lisa photographed by her mother while acting like an adult woman, as many young girls do.
