Beyond the Universe, The Wounds of Lost Love

I just made it to the last day of Yayoi Kusama's "New Works" Exhibition at Victoria Miro. I was meaning to go to it since the opening day. Typical of me leaving things till the last minute.
Kusama is 84 years old and still working in her studio. I just can't describe in words how much I love, admire, respect and get inspired by her work and herself... and I'm glad looking at her work when she's still alive. Here are some of the pictures of her work I took. These pictures don't translate the actual pieces though, you have to be there see them, feel them and get mind blown.
