"Our body is being influenced by our life. And yet our body is more than the sum of our parts. We are after all more than the sum of our experiences. We are as malleable as wax." (L.B.)

The label is inspired by Louise Bourgeois's art pieces that portrayed relationships either as a whole or in relation to its surroundings, a coalescence between material and female body. Creating women's environs, shelter and security.
