"My mother was a restorer, she repaired broken……" — Louise Bourgeois

"My mother was a restorer, she repaired broken things. I don't do that. I destroy things. I cannot go the straight line. I must destroy, rebuild, destroy again. My rhythm is not the same. My mother moved in a straight line: I go from one extreme to the other."

— Louise Bourgeois
