If you haven't heard of the creative Yayoi Kusama, here is your chance. I came across her today and became instantly fascinated. She is a Japanese artists. Her paintings, collages, soft sculptures, performance art and environmental installations all share an obsession with repetition, pattern, and accumulation which is quite evident below. She describes herself as an "obsessive artist". She is also a published novelist and poet as well as creating notable work in film and fashion design. On November 12th of this year, Christies New York sold a work by her for $5,100,000, which is a record for a living female artist.
