art inspired: yayoi kusama infinity mirrored room - filled with the brilliance of life
Wednesday, May 23, 2012
This
week's art deep purple inspired fashion post looks to the saturated optical effects
of Yayoi Kusama,
whose soft sculptures and installations influenced artists such as AndyWarhol and Claes Oldenburg. Although
her work was forgotten after departing the New York art scene in the early
1970s, she's now acknowledged as one of the most important living artists
to come out of Japan . Known for immersive artworks, her current exhibiton at the Tate Modern features a series of rooms covered in
psychedelic polka dots, mirrors and more. The Infinity Mirrored room constructed
just for this exhibit consists of hundreds of low-energy LED lights
reflected by wall-to-wall mirrors, a spectacular spacial void brimming
with dazzling sparkling lights. The Yayoi Kusama exhibit at the Tate Modern will close on June 5, 2012.
Will you be wearing deep purple this spring and summer?

If you find the right shade of deep purple you can give your LBD a break and make a very elegant statement. I'm willing to start with a pair of shoes at least. :)
Such a great inspiration and amazing outfit! Purple is such a chic and rich colour! I especially love the gorgeous pumps from the look!

The Infinity Mirrored Room must be totally dazzling in real life considering how fascinating it was in the video. I love the outfit you put together from the inspiration! The dress is stunning! I love rich shades of deep purple and almost consider it a neutral if that makes sense.
I am feeling much better these days! Thanks Mary Jo!
