In the latest issue of Bullett magazine, my friend HG interviews Yayoi Kusama (“Don’t be too jealous –– it was just an email interview”) and asks the all important question: what does your brain look like? For the record, Yayoi’s answer isn’t nearly as good as the answers of my participants, found here.
HG: What do you think your brain looks like?
YK: The image of it is always changing, and it’s difficult to explain my own brain. I think it would be much easier if someone else describes the image of my brain. (footnotes 2 and 3)
2: “Oh, to be a neuron in Kusama’s brain.” ~Joshua Jackson, actor [ed note: what?!]
3: “And if we read her installations as images of her mind, then the dots could be taken to represent the millions of neurons that exist in the brain.” ~From Walking in My Mind, Hayward Gallery Publishing, 2009
