Yayoi Kusama Flowers 1985 Tokyo Exhibition Poster Art Print

Rooted in the avant-garde traditions of post-war Japanese art, this piece showcases a meticulous obsession with pattern and repetition. The composition features four vibrant yellow lilies, their petals saturated with orange polka dots that create a rhythmic pulse. These blooms rise on stems covered in dense green stippling, set against a dark, webbed background characterizing the famous infinity net style.

About Yayoi Kusama

Kusama’s pumpkins, covered in rhythmic dots, have become some of the most recognised images in contemporary art. Her repeated patterns create a hypnotic, all-over effect that brings energy to a plain wall. Botanical illustration combined scientific accuracy with fine artistry long before photography.
