Wild and Funny....Louise Bourgeois

'Pelt 3' completed this week, the final piece ready for the show in St Ives... and so a little treat in the shape of a brief trip to London.
Walking from the tube through the leafy suburbs of Hampstead where the Freud Museum is situated is like waking into another world. Then to see some of Louise Bourgeois' works in the context of her long years of psychoanalysis was wonderful.www.freud.org.uk/.../louise-bourgeois-the-return-of-the-repressed-/ There were lots of very serious writings, scribbled notes on backs of bits of card and paper but honestly I could almost hear her chuckling.
She is so wild,funny and bizarre it is hard not to come away smiling!
