Yayoi Kusama: Dots Obsession—Aspiring to Heaven’s Love


The most extraordinary and comprehensive exhibition about Kusama-San throughout her whole life showcasing over 7 decades and 200 original pieces of artwork.


JAG Hong Kong coordinated this extensive project from the conceptual idea sharing and creating, to material propositions and performance testing prior to installation. The result realised the perfect combination of colour and suitable graphic material throughout the execution of the project of over 1000 square meters of installation. Dots Obsession—Aspiring to Heaven’s Love (2022) was one of the three brand-new works by the artist presented in M+’s Special Exhibition Yayoi Kusama: 1945 to Now, the largest retrospective of Kusama in Asia outside Japan.


Obsession—Aspiring to Heaven’s Love presents artist Yayoi Kusama’s signature polka dots and reflective mirrors. Large balloons covered with white polka dots are suspended from the ceiling. Going deeper into the space, visitors will encounter a mirrored cubic environment that brings a kaleidoscopic experience. The work is a renewed manifestation of Kusama’s signature mirrored spaces and happenings from the 1960s. It provides a new dimension for understanding of the artist’s core concept of infinity and accumulation. The perceptual experience brought by the repetition of dots and the illusion of infinite space obliterates one into the cosmos.
