Fireflies on the Water showcases Kusama’s ongoing investigation into the relationship between the individual, the space that they occupy and the concept of infinity. Her recognizable site-specific works transport viewers into a “space that seems endlessly expansive,” and for the first time, Toledo Museum installed Kusama’s Mirror Infinity Room, an immersive installation that uses lights and mirrors to create a limitless space.
