About The Work
The pumpkin is a reoccurring motif in the work of iconic contemporary artist Yayoi Kusama, as are the lined dots that permeate a great number of her pieces. Enacted as a compulsive expression of infinity, Kusama’s dots have come define an entire era of her work. The artist first introduced her spotted gourds in the Japanese pavilion at the 1993 Venice Biennale, and has produced various manifestations since. This small black and yellow Pumpkin edition is made from painted resin and possesses the same rich, textured quality found in Kusama’s two-dimensional renderings.
