A polka-dot has the form of the sun, which is a symbol of the energy of the whole world and our living life, and also the form of the moon, which is calm. Round, soft, colourful, senseless and unknowing. Polka-dots can't stay alone; like the communicative life of people, two or three polka-dots become movement... Polka-dots are a way to infinity.
Yayoi KusamaI read the art reviews of my work. Some critics understand my art correctly, while some don't. I simply ignore the reviews written by the latter.
Yayoi KusamaIt is my wish to leave a message to the whole world from the universe, a message of love and peace to the people of the world.
