A Quote by Yayoi Kusama

Suppose I put polka dots all over my body and then cover my background completely with polka dots. The polka dots on my body, merging with those in the background, create an optically strange scene.
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.
Polka dots can't stay alone. When we obliterate nature and our bodies with polka dots we become part of the unity of our environments.
Polka dots can't stay alone. When we obliterate nature and our bodies with polka dots, we become part of the unity of our environments.
I've always loved polka dots. Ah, oui. It is a joyful shape, the polka dot. It is alive.
Since my childhood, I have always made works with polka dots. Earth, moon, sun and human beings all represent dots; a single particle among billions.
Polka dots are fabulous.
What am I thankful for? MY POLKA DOTS!!
The bows, the polka dots, the color, the playfulness - you don't have to over do it. You just have to be able to style it in the right way.
I'm really into color. I love polka dots, rainbows, any pattern.
Ironically, fashion trends, be it denim or polka dots, have a tendency to perpetuate the contrary.
It's fine to dress in polka dots and pink crinoline if you want. What I recoil from is the idea that that alone is the only way to be female.
I agree the SS 2014 collection from my own line comprising knee pads and polka dots didn't feel too good but I'm proud of the fact that it was original.
I find it hard to believe that anyone could be so curious about me that they would want to read that I wear underwear shorts with green polka dots on them.
I have been using polka dots since I was a very young child. Only after that, it seems, have they been used throughout the rest of the art world.
Knowledge is the key that unlocks all the doors. You can be green-skinned with yellow polka dots and come from Mars, but if you have knowledge that people need, instead of beating you, they'll beat a path to your door.
I've been creating work by silk-screening images of arms and legs and heads and objects on paper - like drawings of vegetables, guns, hats, whatever - and then also printing sheets of patterns, colorful polka dots and line drawing patterns.
