00:00:21,070 --> 00:00:27,070
She was born in 1929 in Matsumoto.

4
00:00:27,070 --> 00:00:31,699
Well known for her repeating dot patterns,

5
00:00:31,699 --> 00:00:35,700
her art uses a variety of media,

6
00:00:35,700 --> 00:00:39,700
including painting, drawing, sculpture, film,

7
00:00:39,700 --> 00:00:43,700
performance and image installation.

8
00:00:43,700 --> 00:01:07,819
It reigns from works on paper filtering instead semi-abstract imagery, to soft sculptures known as accumulations, to her infinity net paintings made up of colorful repeat arcs on painted up into large patterns.

00:01:07,819 --> 00:01:20,299
Since 1977, Kusama has been marked with obsessiveness and a desire to escape from physiological trauma.

10
00:01:20,299 --> 00:01:40,459
In an attempt to share her experience, she creates installations that immerse the viewer in her obsessive vision of endless dots and nets or infinitely broader space.
