Louise Bourgeois (19112010) was a world-renowned modern artist noted for her sculptures made of wood, steel, stone, and cast rubber. Just as spiders spin and repair their webs, Louises own mother was a weaver of tapestries. Her most famous spider sculpture, Maman, stands more than 30 feet high.
She worked with fabric throughout her career, and this biographical picture book shows how Bourgeoiss childhood experiences weaving with her loving, nurturing mother provided the inspiration for her most famous works. Louise spent her childhood in France as an apprentice to her mother before she became a tapestry artist herself. With a beautifully nuanced and poetic story, this book stunningly captures the relationship between mother and daughter and illuminates how memories are woven into us all.
