Denmark - Zealand - Louisiana Museum - Gleaming Lights of the Souls by Yayoi Kusama 01_DSC7249
You'll probably agree with me when I say my previous upload of this installation is more successful, this is being uploaded mostly to show how the lights change colour creating an everchanging spectacle.
The Yayoi Kusama installation called 'Gleaming Lights of the Souls' was one of the very last things we saw during our visit to the Louisiana Museum in Denmark. It's constructed in a small room big enough for only a few people to enter at a time, consequently queues can be quite long when the Museum is busy. It was well worth the wait though even if still photography can't really do the room of glowing pulsating orbs justice......
The Museum is currently showing a retrospective of her work : en.louisiana.dk/exhibition/yayoi-kusama

From the Louisiana Museum website : 'Gleaming Lights of the Souls by Yayoi Kusama is one of the most beloved pieces in the museum collection. The installation, dating from 2008, consists of a single space, four by four meters. The walls and ceilings are covered with mirrors; the floor is a reflecting pool; and you stand in the middle of the water on a platform.
Hanging from the ceiling above you are a hundred lamps that resemble glowing ping pong balls. These lamps change colour in a way that transport us into a special rhythm and pulse, almost as though we become one with the universe of the installation. Gleaming Lights of the Souls is a truly lyrical work of art in every sense.'
