Kusama's Self-Obliteration
A film exploration of the work and aesthetic concepts of Yayoi Kusama, painter, sculptor, and environmentalist, conceived in terms of an intense emotional experience with metaphysical overtones, an extension of my ultimate interest in a total fusion of the arts in a spirit of mutual collaboration. —Jud Yalkut

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a trance-like dialogue between camera and performance, relying on rhythmic editing and obsessive repetition of patterns. It explores the obliteration of self into art, where the artist's body becomes merely part of an infinite design.
What lingers after viewing is a sense of expanded consciousness, where anxiety and ecstasy fuse into a single visual stream. The ordinary world feels starkly devoid of its pulsating magic. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Jud Yalkut

In total darkness, on a large screen, surrendering to the images without analysis.
