Walk Into A Kaleidoscope

Enter an unforgettable universe of luminous color and endless reflections, only at SFMOMA!

Experience the kaleidoscopic world of Yayoi Kusama, one of the most iconic and globally celebrated artists working today. Kusama’s Dreaming of Earth’s Sphericity, I Would Offer My Love (2023), welcomes the viewer into a universe of multicolored light. At first, the exterior of this sculptural work blends into the gallery’s all-white surroundings, punctuated by an array of large transparent acrylic dots, including a quadrant—or quarter-dot—door at one corner for visitors to enter. In the interior, bright ambient light filters through the colored windows to create a luminous pattern of overlapping circles. As visitors turn around in the space, the mirrored surfaces create an environment that is constantly in flux.

Lana says —  With the timed entry, you will likely wait in line for a short while. Once in the experience, it is very short. We also recommend the exhibit The Visitors — especially fun if you appeciate playing or listening to music and the Art of Noise! Save an hour - and room in your suitcase - for the museum store!

Runs through May 2025. For ticket purchase, click here to visit the SFMOMA website!
