Yayoi Kusama — Butterfly
Yayoi Kusama

Butterfly

1985

A screenprint from Yayoi Kusama's butterfly series, featuring a vividly colored butterfly rendered in her signature obsessive dot and pattern language. The wings display concentric circle eye-spots and dense accumulations of red, black, and white dots against cream and golden-yellow fields, bordered in coral red, all set against a dark background filled with an intricate teal-green web-like infinity net pattern. This work exemplifies Kusama's fusion of natural motifs with her iconic polka-dot and net patterning, executed with characteristic graphic precision.
