Portrait of Yayoi Kusama. Born in 1929, Kusama is one of the world's most successful artists. But she also suffers from mental illness, and has lived voluntarily in a mental health facility since the 1970s. #art #artsky #painting #painter #traditionalart #kusama

My first post on Bluesky.

Today I feel like a Godhead rider, been focused on developing strong on both NINA (my AI agent) and PolkaTap (my tap-mix-pay NFC service). Still a fan of JAM, @polkadot.bsky.social 's saving grace.🐺

In “Portrait,” Yayoi Kusama (草間彌生) turns the traditional self-portrait into a cosmic emblem. Instead of modeling flesh and light, she uses her lifelong language of “infinity nets” and dots which are motifs that grew from her childhood hallucinations and became her way of both expressing and managing overwhelming sensations. 

She depicts herself as a stylized bust-length figure set against a vibrating field of yellow and black. She has a rigid bob of hair shaped almost like a helmet, rendered as a flat yellow form covered in neat grids of tiny black dots. Her face is like an oval mask of the same yellow, its “skin” entirely replaced by dots of many sizes, from pinpoints to large, inky circles. Dark almond eyes, heavy brows, and black lips anchor the otherwise pattern-saturated face as it looks straight out toward us. A narrow yellow neck, also dotted, rises from a semicircular collar and broad dress that cascade into scalloped bands, lace-like edges, and beaded rows. Behind her, branching nets and radiating cone forms create a halo that seems to pulse and spiral, merging body and background into a single, immersive field of pattern.

The yellow and black palette echoes her famous pumpkins and room installations, while the repeating cones recall soft, organic forms she once covered furniture and clothing with. Her direct gaze suggests a fixed identity, yet the body dissolves into decoration, enacting Kusama’s idea of “self-obliteration,” where the self melts into the surrounding universe.

Shown in a gallery focused on self-portraits, this work situates the artist as both subject and environment as a woman who has spent decades transforming private visions into shared, exuberant worlds, inviting us to step inside the very patterns that define her life and art.

A self-portrait taken inside Yayoi Kusama's "Gleaming Lights of the Souls" at Denmark's Louisiana Museum of Modern Art.  The lights within the mirrored infinity room shift colours and at this phase of their cycle were primarily blue and purple with some red.  Echos of the photographer's body appear throughout the sea of lights.  The most immediate reflection in the centre of the frame has the brightest light directly over the heart of the woman. She floats as if lost in space. 

Accompanying text is an excerpt from Matthew Good's song "Flight Recorder from Viking 7".

Complete Lyrics: 

Space is colder
than the air in the mountains
where I come from
The air in the mountains
where I come from

For years I drifted
Further and further
into the unknown
Further and further
into the unknown

And I wonder
where have you gone
And I wonder
what have you done?
What have you done?

Space is older
than the air moving in and out
of your lungs
The air moving in and out
of your lungs

For years I've drifted
the math of a divinity
that goes on and on
the math of a divinity
that goes on and on

And I wonder
where have you gone?
And I wonder
what have you done?
What have you done?

a photo of a Kusama installation - the viewer stands within a small, dark room, which has been fully covered with mirrors, and then what seems like an infinite number of little lights appearing all over, reflected in the mirrors. the photo is taken from within this room, and a small outline of that viewer is seen in darkness, while little lights fill the remainder of the frame

at the Hirshhorn in 2017, I saw a Yayoi Kusama exhibit -- INFINITY ROOMS -- with several installations and she immediately became of of my favorite artists
the interior of one of those magical spaces is shown below

One of the customers wandering the Reno Vintage Market allowed me to photograph her… She’d never heard of Yayoi Kusama so I told her and that we have Kusama pumpkins at SFMOMA in San Francisco… #polkadots #kusama
