The artwork, titled “Cell (Choisy)” by artist Louise Bourgeois, was created in 1993 in the United States and is a part of the Confessional Art movement. This installation piece embodies the genre’s focus on personal expression and emotional experience.
“Cell (Choisy)” features a confined space enclosed by a metal fence, evoking sensations of isolation and containment. Within this area, a miniature model of a building is displayed. The stark contrast between the oppressive fence and the delicate structure inside highlights themes of entrapment and vulnerability. The artwork’s composition and use of space encourage reflection on personal confinement and the psychological impact of isolation.
