Yayoi kusama exhibition at National Gallery

Took half day from work to check out Yayoi kusama artworks at the National Gallery. What attracted me to go is the fact that her artworks are kindda eccentric and different from the usual art and it’s more fun.

I find this to be quite hypnotizing ....a bit giddy from staring at it too long.

Doesn’t it put u in a trance...? Like your eyes playing tricks on you?

Her famous pumpkins...

We went into this small room and it’s looks like we enter a mirror fun house...

There is so little time to take picture and enjoy yourself coz the queue is crazy long and you have to keep moving....

The main highlight of this room was this....

Where you peek into a box and gets astonished by the mirror reflections of hundreds of spotted pumpkins...

Sadly, we are only given 5 seconds to take a picture and have to move on....it’s crazy! This is art! Not a factory conveyor belt ok!

Next, we have to queue up and go into another room....

Upon entering the room, I can see many small round lights in different colors changing every few seconds...this time, we were only given 10 seconds in this room so I began snapping my picture ASAP....

The colours are v nice and feel like you are in another world....however short lived....

Bye...I have to leave so soon and can’t even fully enjoy the atmosphere of this magical art installation....

More amazing displays of lights....luckily there are no time limits for this...

Haha....

Next is the colourful spotty room....

Giant colourful sporty flower 

More colorful pictures from her.... 

Lastly we came to this room with many iron balls on the floor...

We are not allowed to squat or kneel in this room....can only stand and walk....so weird right? Coz the moment I kneel on the floor and take a picture with the balls, the museum ppl will come over and scold us...crazy...I mean we r not even touching the balls or anything....

Managed to take this while standing and holding my camera at waist level....

Seriously, I do like the artworks from Yayoi kusama as they are so colourful and fun to look at...but the museum experience ruins the fun of it..maybe National Gallery can come up with a better way to manage the crowd and let ppl enjoy the artworks instead of shoving them in a conveyor belt manner or imposing some strange rules...
