Part of our 2022 Hayward Gallery exhibition, Louise Bourgeois: The Woven Child, this piece comes from the artist’s pole series, which incorporated her own clothes within sculptural works.

In this video interview Rocha explains what drew her to this particular work, its significance, and what the choice of garments incorporated within the works tells us about Bourgeois and her approach.

‘It’s so personal, but it also feels like it’s being told to you; each work really speaks to your own intimacy’
