Bourgeois was born in 1911 in Paris, France, and lived there through 1938, when she moved the United States. Her early work was mainly engravings and paintings, but she is best known for her sculptures in bronze, rubber, stone and wood. Her work often takes the form of organic objects, such as hands and the female form. She also works with cages and mirrors, reflecting what’s on the inside. She died in 2010.
