Dots on my mind

When I was doing my BFA at Pratt, I encountered for the first time the wonderful world of Yayoi Kusama. We were on a day trip to the art galleries in Chelsea and this lady had an installation cube- you would walk in and found yourself surrounded by “infinity”! All these beautiful lights reflected in a room of mirrors.  I never got over it. I would even dare to say she is one of my favorite artists!
So last year on a quick getaway to Paris with my sister, we had the opportunity to see Kusama’s retrospective at the Centre Pompidou. It was my sister's first time seeing any of Kusama's works! The exhibition was amazing and we were both thrilled to see it!
Yayoi’s obsession with dots…her colors…her story…her installations are all incredible and if you happen to cross her path make sure you immerse yourself in her world!

Her retrospective is now in London and from there it will go to New York!

Enjoy,
Giannina.

    1. Nope!! Not in the Tate or the Pompidou, I think they do that at the beginning of the show. I'm buying some round stickers to stick all over my room. Maybe I'll steal some of yours? jeje;)
