Yayoi Kusama first began to paint 'Infinity nets' after watching waves ripple below her while on a flight from Japan to the United States. Infinity nets evokes many fluid forms: foam on a wave, soap bubbles, or the ebb and flow of a rier. The painting comprises tiny crescent shapes repeated in ever-expanding arches. Kusama's gestures build up into a network of interlocking forms; at some points the paint is thick and sculptural, while at others it is fine and translucent. Like cells nested together, competing for space, the circles appear to vibrate and undulate across the canvas.
