Kusama, Yayoi | Sea (Kusama 136), 1989 — available on Composition Gallery
Signed, titled, dated and numbered in pencil
Sea (Kusama 136) by Yayoi Kusama is a 1989 screenprint that reflects the artist’s fascination with repetition, vibrant color, and stylized natural imagery. The composition depicts an underwater scene populated by vividly patterned fish and starfish floating against a deep blue background. Each creature is covered with Kusama’s signature dots and mosaic-like patterns, transforming marine life into rhythmic decorative forms. The dense network of lines in the background evokes the texture of water or coral, reinforcing the immersive quality of the scene. Through repetition and bright contrasting colors, Kusama turns a simple ocean motif into a dynamic visual field that reflects her broader exploration of infinity, pattern, and the natural world. The screenprint measures approximately 53.5 × 61 cm (21.1 × 24 inches) and was produced in a limited edition of 100. The work is signed, titled, dated, and numbered in pencil.

What is pop-art?

What is pop-art?

Pop Art is an art movement that began in Britain in 1955 and in the late 1950s in the U.S. It challenged traditional fine arts by incorporating imagery from popular culture, such as news, advertising, and comic books. Pop Art often isolates and recontextualizes materials, combining them with unrelated elements. The movement is more about the attitudes and ideas that inspired it than the specific art itself. Pop Art is seen as a reaction against the dominant ideas of Abstract Expressionism, bringing everyday consumer culture into the realm of fine art.
