Q: What is Yayoi Kusama's 'Infinity Mirrored Room - Gleaming Lights of the Souls' artwork?

A: It is an installation artwork designed for viewers to experience the art world of Yayoi Kusama through direct, immersive experiences. The medium of 'mirrors' and 'water' that fill the four sides endlessly reflects and expands the space infinitely, while infinitely generating oneself and others within it, blurring the boundaries between reality and unreality, and between the real and the virtual. The 'dots' within Yayoi Kusama's hallucinations, visualized with approximately 100 LED lights, endlessly generate and expand within the infinite space, eventually consuming oneself and leading to a transcendental world, escaping from the anxiety and fear caused by hallucinations. Visitors experience boundlessness, like the universe, within a limited space, and alleviate loneliness through the abstract experience of self-generation and consumption. 'Infinity Mirrored Room - Gleaming Lights of the Souls,' exhibited at bonte museum, is an artwork installed in only five locations worldwide, including bonte museum, the Louis Vuitton Foundation, and the Mumok Museum.
