About this work

You see a small mirror covered in tiny, wobbly white loops that look like a net stretched tight. Kusama has painted these loops—called “Infinity Nets”—for over sixty years. She says the pattern comes from hallucinations she had as a child. The loops never stop; they just keep repeating, even on the mirror’s edge. This one was made for a magazine edition, so it’s not a one-off painting but a print you could buy. If you like the way the loops feel endless, look up more works by Yayoi Kusama.
