Yayoi Kusama

I want to create art that transcends time and space.

I am a solitary artist, but I am connected to everyone through my art.

I want to be an artist who brings joy to people's lives.

My art is my religion.

I am a warrior of love.

I want to die in a blaze of glory, surrounded by my art.

I am a revolutionary artist.

I would cover everything - the walls, ceiling, floor, and myself - with polka dots.

I swallowed hundreds of pills and tried to kill myself many times.

I orgasm when I paint pumpkin sculptures.

I want to cover the entire universe with polka dots - the moon, the sun, all the stars.

I used to have hallucinations that flowers were talking to me.

I masturbate with my shoes on because I'm always working.

When I was a child, I saw the tablecloth start moving and eat all the food.

I wanted to have sex with all the artists in New York, including Andy Warhol.

I still want to marry all the pumpkins in the world.

The earth is a polka dot in the universe.

My art is medicine for my sickness.

I wanted to revolt against the hatred of sex in Japanese society.

I will never stop making art until I die.
