Yayoi Kusama Interview: Earth is a Polka Dot

[@TheModernInvestor]

Watching this almost brought me to tears, she is without a doubt one of my favourite artists of all time

[@mesagoat]

I hear ya on the tears, check!

[@deediva6073]

But...she also makes racist comments now that brings tears

[@planetluna9554]

I went through very traumatic events as a toddler and I remember seeing the dots every night as I would try and sleep. I had insomnia from trauma and would just be hypnotized by these dots, I would call them “fairies”. I think there is something to this, how the young brain can be fractured and stunted by traumatic events leading to artist like herself. She deeply inspires me to master my craft and my mind. ❤❤❤

[@lenakunzx]

She is amazing. had to cry from the half, much. Yayoi if you read this, you are so nice!

[@themrgumbatron]

Lovely interview and sharing, rarely do we get to appreciate an interview with one of the most prolific contemporary artists. She’s incredible.

[@graciegail]

Thank you ....I love her work and love hearing her talk

[@Mohamjip-x4h]

Her work is incredible and she seems more sane than many people.

[@archivedfamilytime8094]

i just need to hug this sweet lady

[@kenrutherford1109]

I'd love to hug her too, but that's just wishful thinking

[@yeranep9443]

What she said about black people being smelly

[@4rifr0mthe3nd]

Sweet? She's not sweet at all, she's racist 💀

[@Fizza111]

Polkadots are my top fave pattern! Miss Yayoi u did a great fantastic job!

[@cheryldodd-marko9787]

A gifted artist,🕊🇺🇲💕

[@ingridllinas5612]

I wish I could experiment the sensation of being in an infinite room someday. Wondering. How does it feel to be surrounded by polka dots and bright colors? Indeed. Those installations look as the cosmos.

[@ChooseCompassion]

Me too!

[@FetishFilms]

SHE is a cute little polkadot!

[@gothsonic]

i like her art but im kinda sad she went through such an extreme way to do it.

[@mesagoat]

like is a joy and a suffer. thru hardship all ze greatest things come! stay strong and you will prosper grasshopper

[@gracekim3186]

I can relate to her story. My mom ripped my tattooing away from me and told me I couldn’t do it because it’s related to the devil. It was my passion to ink people up. The one thing I really had a passion for is gone. Now I don’t draw as much anymore But the few times I do draw I like abstract work too

[@kellyhoy3902]

You're like no one else. I'm so glad you followed your heart.

[@superkidzpackft.hanshaniqa7647]

I love your polka dots very much !!!👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻👑👑👑💌💌💌❤️❤️💛💛💚💚💙💙💜💜💞❣💘💟💓

[@violetinoz5779]

[@brad349miller]

[@ArtSFBlog]

So good

[@laurenrogers3019]

I love hearing her speak Japanese

[@BtracedbylightpicsBlogspot]

Nice!!! Vive l'art!!!

[@arielsilva1793]

o my. love. love. love.

[@ComboMon-]

Does there have to be a dislike on every video?

[@lhntr2]

i have a question, what message does she want to bring over to people? and what do you like about her work and why?

[@ilmnt.guidance]

I really think it evokes some particular emotion, that I can't really express. I was pretty lucky to see some of her work in real. It is amazing.

[@mesagoat]

perhaps the universality of us all. we all share this planet, these colors, and we all suffer sometimes. stay strong and persevere thru your hardships. that gives maximum respect to this miraculous existence

[@Mrandromedarian]

I think it's an effort to dot the galaxies 100 000 000 000 stars to reach the galaxy core where there are some strange details. Acually there are 4 of them. They look a lot like Yaoi's diagrams. I'm handicapped by my mental approach as well and i think that this approach is the way to become free.

[@hobimayabangtan4617]

Can you explain a little bit more

[@abbyzain3232]

I thought I was alone...

[@faaaz2012]

Молодец семья что не поддерживала её

[@JICM25]

Fucking got a small loan of 1,000,000 yen...

[@ChrisCoombes]

$7250 in today's money. Must have been a small fortune back then.

[@Badtastemamma]

these bloody polka dots are really difficult to exchange for stuff in the shops, I keep telling them 'earth is a polkadot!

[@СветланаПодобедова-ь1л]

Ну что за бред, что это за картины, можно подумать что она просто больна. Раскрашивать голых мужиков и обалдеть от этого. Нарисовала горошком ах как красиво, вы что с ума все сходите.

[@jimlarsen6782]

I love your art, but the red hair not so much. Your use of dots is genius, and pleasing.
