Maman (1999) by Louise Bourgeois, installed behind the building, addresses the duplicitous nature of maternity; the silk of a spider is used both to construct cocoons and to bind prey. Bourgeois explores the complexity of the human mind, publicly exorcising her emotional demons and poetically re-creating childhood associations in the form of a gigantic insect.
