Description

Its title roughly translated to ‘housewife,” this is one from a series of four Femme Maison paintings Bourgeois made in the late 1940s. Her depiction of a female figure’s naked body with a house for a head became an iconic image, embraced in the late 1960s by the feminist art movement as a symbol of the domestic restraints on women’s identity. However, as with all of Bourgeois’s work, meaning resides in the tension between opposites: the house is both refuge and trap, shelter and prison.

The Skateroom's Louise Bourgeois collection, part of a limited edition of just 100, was created in collaboration with The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

The Skateroom

The Skateroom merges impactful artists, museums, buyers and non-profits with skate culture to create social change. Printing iconic works of art on responsibly-made skateboards, the project creates unique pieces that foster important conversations while donating to non-profits dedicated to improving humanity through a '5:25' business model: 5% of the turnover or 25% of the profit from every sale - whichever amount is greater. Rooted in the belief that skateboarding and education should coexist, the Skateroom builds and supports skate schools in developing countries around the world to empower underprivileged and at-risk children.
