Festival Of Life by Yayoi Kusama

Yayoi Kusama is a Japanese artist who lives in Japan and whose work is internationally known for her play on polka dots and her amazing visuals through her 'infinty mirrror rooms'.
Kusama interprets much of her experiences and trauma into her work and plays on repetition with polka dots to describe a hallucinogenic feeling.
Kusama's mirrored rooms with the silver spheres was like a trip into eternity. The mirrored walls along with the spheres duplicated your image and challenged you to find yourself in eternity. Ideas of mortality and existence coexist in a room full of visual echoes of yourself.

We stood on line for 2 hours to be able to enter the mirrored rooms.
There was one large mirrored room which allowed 6 people at a time for 1 minute. Yes, 1 minute! We really had to be speedy with our pictures!
In an encased peeking booth, two small windows allowed you to glance into a smaller portrayal of repetition, lights and mirrors. A luminous array of flickering multi colored lights. In a sense, trippy--on many levels human, a reminder of souls and worlds beyond us.

The room filled with red polka dots are decorated by large flowers standing still in the midst of the array of dots. There was also a painting which matched the theme of polka dots which speak of Yayoi Kusama's life and trauma.
Yayoi has stated that her work relates to the hallucinations she has but nobody else is able to witness.
