About The Work
The Couples evokes a recurring theme in the work of Louise Bourgeois, reflecting the artist's interest in exploring the nature of human relationships and what she believed to be the inherent struggles involved in maintaining balance. Bourgeois evokes this sense of tension through abstract means, creating a cocoon-like work that envelops her couples in a form that is at once embracing and menacing.
