- Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama is known for her repetitive polka dots and peep-show-like chamber rooms that create the illusion of infinite space. Six of her Infinity Mirror Rooms, part of a retrospective of her 65-year career, are on exhibit at the Hirshhorn Museum in Washington, D.C., Feb. 23-May 14, 2017.

I had the pleasure of experiencing these rooms today. Absolutely breathtaking. If you have the opportunity to see this exhibit, GO!!!
Do the mirror lines(seams) get in the way of the experience?
Where I go to see this and how much price to see legendary exhibition. Plz tell me🙏
Coronavirus: nope not today
They really are spectacles. There’s on at an art gallery near me, incredible stuff
Imagine experiencing this on acid.
Consider it done
I was thinking shrooms
You mean imagine laying on the ground going “NO WAY!! Oh my god NO WAY” while people step over you? Done it.
she's with the warhol factory crowd back then WHAT CHA EXPECT !........giggle
She is one of the artists I look up to the most. I wish her work will never be forgotten.
She's a racist FYI
Indianapolis was blessed with Room #6 of this exhibit, with the pumpkins. It is an experience I will never, ever forget!
it would be great if there was a way to wear or be in a mirror suit with a see-thru mirror helmet, and to be standing on mirrors so you have the feeling that you disappear.
Brilliant idea.
You are genious
I remember her artwork, it was breathtaking when I entered!!! I was so overwhelmed with emotions
I actually just saw the exhibit today. It was safe to say, I was blown away.
i said it before and I'll say it again her art is a trip!!!!.......well dome eh!
Beautiful work & video. Would you please credit the superb music as well? It's always troubling when music isn't listed in the credits alongside video production. (I assume there's a business reason for this?) Thank you!
Who composed the music for this video? I would love to hear more.
Did you known who?? I like too..
Elektronoid & Spectral Hades
It has a Mike Oldfield Tubular Bells vibe/feel to it.
What's the music for this? It's very ghibli-esque(which is a good thing!)
When one was installed in museumacan in Jakarta, I accidentally stepped off the platform into the pool of water and everyone who knew the exhibit well looked suspiciously at me when I walked through the halls with my shoes squeaking
oh oh they should do a floating lantern room (the little ones on water)
Can the music used for this video be credited? Would love to purchase the track.
Love the first part
Her work is at the New York Botanical Gardens in the Bronx, NY. Love her work. Art work is there all summer 2021.
Beautiful! Who's the composer of the music? You have to credit it! Fits perfectly
TY 4 the idea, I will be buying a bunch of mirrors and adding lights to my room
Amazing…. What else to say?😱
That was different and some were interesting, but I think a room of mirrors filled with a bunch of puppies, kittens and tennis balls, with a disco light ball spinning in the center of a room would have gotten a big WOW from me.
Brilliant!
Beautiful OMG I want to go here someday!!!!!
What happens if you shine a super bright laser pointer in there?
I go on Thursday!! I’ve been waiting for over 6mo
*The 30 minute waits are even more amazing*
Jk the rooms were awesome I loved it :3
Wondeful exhibition! Is Fantastic.
We should be given red yayoi-style wigs to keep for after.
Unbelievable 🔥
Fabulous!
its so beutiful!
I feel a bit mystified by a lot of this. I can't help but think that the repetition will eventually come to an end at the final atoms in the mirrors. The longest possible repetition occurs when two mirrors are placed precisely adjacent to each other, which eventually comes to an end at the particles in the very centre of them. This is an example what art can do to people. It primarily exists for viewers to express their thoughts and emotions.
His is so cool
Simplemente fascinante
Is this easy to DIY? Just imagine all the crazy possibilities you can create in one 1x1 room with simple mirrors on every surface
2 комната восхитила. В маленькой коробке внутри комнаты целый мир
DOPE
I'm surprised people don't create these in the US and charge for them
went from polka dot love to obliteration of eternity
HD video does not have the processing or bandwidth to compress THAT many pixels when the camera is moved or panned!
Favoloso 😊
Grandissima artista 😎
Un viaje al interior
I wanna go wtf
Koi no yokan
Deftones! Right on!
Room is Infinity - oo is symbolic number 8 lay down - RM is 18.4 - the Date of Mr. Einstein death - going in Higher dimensions.
Good
imagine getting stuck in that room
Wow
Me when I Let It In And It Took Everything:
Two of these rooms at the Tate. Two minutes per room, £10 entrance fee (cough cough...)
wanna watch this in person🥲that's real legend
any1 who've been could tell how big are the rooms? 3m2 or 3000m2? lols so pretty tho
Each room should have had a few more seconds of video..
You're only allowed in each room for 20-30 seconds and aren't allowed to film, in the love I have for dots 40 seconds and in the all internal love I have for pumpkins filming or photography is prohibited so be glad you even got footage of them all.
MDS viaja
Infinitely digital
I See, for the First Time.
imagine building the backrooms
My teacher made me go on here for some athena project lmao
That is like alien egg.
Charles hoskinson brought me here
And if I sneezed
U would be anxious.. just me?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Disneyland next?
for $40 it's a bit pricy
Quien esta aquí por la prueba xd ?
אמנית יוצאת דופן .חוויה.
punch all the mirrors like bruce lee!
Ok, esta genial para un parque de atracciones, pero esto definitivamente no puede ser considerado arte
should be renamed seizures rooms
Would have been better if it wasn’t just them walking into the room. Should have edited out the mechanics of the filming and focused more on the amazing rooms themselves. Looked clunky. Enjoyed the music, tho
Deeply desperately lame
