In Cabin Fever, Catherine Lemblé keeps a weath­er eye on the moun­tains. In search of the fron­tier where man merges into its envi­ron­ment, she encoun­ters a ruth­less and omnipo­tent nature, in which every liv­ing crea­ture must acknowl­edge his supe­ri­or­i­ty. The series depicts the long­ing for a world where sim­plic­i­ty, silence and repose are abun­dant. The cab­in as a last resort, a panacea in a land­scape that’s irrev­o­ca­bly changing.

Cabin Fever col­lects 31 images from the peri­od 2013 – 2018 and a short text by Frederik Willem Daem and Catherine Lemblé. The fold-out cov­er hides a visu­al com­mem­o­ra­tion of her father, to whom the book is ded­i­cat­ed.
