“I have always been interested in infinity, in the endless repetition of life.”
— Yayoi Kusama
As with many of her editioned works from the late 1980s, Shellfish demonstrates Kusama’s ability to elevate ordinary subjects into extraordinary visions. The print captures her unique capacity to merge the microscopic and the cosmic, revealing the infinite potential she sees in even the smallest details of the natural world.
