As Yayoi Kusama developed and refined her Infinity Nets series, she began to emphasize and acknowledge the negative space between the lines, eventually rounding this blankness into her iconic polka-dot motif. Revisiting this early series in later years, Kusama has refined both her conceptual direction and aesthetic ideal to create works which epitomize the sense of boundless space of Infinity Nets. Bringing the round dots to the forefront, in “Accumulation of Infinity Dots”, Kusama has created an expansive cosmos of nets, where the lines have become the negative space in a reversal of her original technique. For Kusama, her dots are intrinsically connected to her visualization of the universe and all that surrounds her. With unbridled affection, Kusama describes her polka dots as “round, soft, colorful, senseless and unknowing. Polka dots become movement. Polka dots are a way to infinity.”

Awash in an overwhelming sea of brightly hued dots, Accumulation of Infinity Dots is a rare color of purple, and it eliminates a focal point, drawing the viewer into the canvas, lost amongst the myriad of spots. Variations in color and size create a topographical landscape of connected circles, giving visual shape to the intangible concept of the infinite.
