Louise Bourgeois

“The spider is a repairer. If you bash into the web of a spider, she doesn’t get mad. She weaves and repairs it.”

“My knives are like a tongue - I love, I do not love, I hate. If you don’t love me, I am ready to attack. I am a double-edged knife.”

“To be an artist, you need to exist in a world of silence.”

“It is not so much where my motivation comes from but rather how it manages to survive.”

“An artist can show things that other people are terrified of expressing.”
