Louise Bourgeois

I am a woman with no secrets.

The creative process is a mystery.

I am not interested in beauty. I am interested in emotion.

The work is a way of getting rid of my demons.

The spider is a symbol of my mother.

Art is a way of dealing with the past.

The creative act is a way of healing.

I am a prisoner of my memories.

The work is a way of understanding myself.

I am not afraid of anything.

Art is a way of communicating.

The work is a way of making sense of the world.

The creative act is a way of transforming pain into beauty.

I am a woman who is always working.

The work is a way of expressing my anger.

I am a woman who is always creating.

Art is a way of making peace with yourself.

The work is a way of dealing with my fears.

The creative act is a way of finding freedom.

I am a woman who is always searching.
