Ah! The lovely (because a little bit mad)Yayoi Kusama exhibits brain manipulating infinity rooms and twenty-seven new large-scale dotted paintings at her monumental 2013 solo exhibition at the David Zwirner Gallery in NY. Once you saw or even better heard her in one of her video's, you'll never forget her. Her high but almost whispering monotone voice, sounds like she's in another dimension, as she probably is. Her work is, without any exception live even more hypnotizing than on picture.

Video with the artist, produced on the occasion of the 2011-2012 traveling retrospective organized by Tate Modern, London.

Exhibit Yayoi Kusama,'I who have arrived in heaven'

at David Zwirner, NY

Hurry up: exhibition doesn't last long! November 8th – December 21st, 2013. Enjoy!

Kusama dots all over Selfridges- An inspiration story-day 111.1

Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama sprinkled her dots all over the world in weird, but o so beautifull, eye catching art installations and had only a few months ago a huge exposition at Tate in London.

Now she's back in the UK with a 24-window takeover of Selfridges and special project space, the Concept Store.

The Yayoi Kusama-for-Louis-Vuitton take-over of Selfridges started on August 24th 2012 running until October 19th 2012. Pack your bags and head to London!

Hi, my name is Kate Stockman.

I am an creative, intuitive thinker & trend forecaster who believes in cross-disciplinary solutions.
I have a passion for future brand development, fashion, art and powerful through-the-line-communication.

I always had multiple sensors, ‘aerials’ or ‘antennas’ as I call them, to feel what’s going on in the world, what is coming and why.
From fashion, over design, food, modern art, communication to psychology, nightlife and science connected with nature. It always felt natural.

That’s why I founded my own creative trend company and this blog.

Enjoy.

The Squid Stories is an interdisciplinary blog magazine focusing on the interaction between design, art, fashion, shops, travel, communication and developments in consumer behaviour.

If I look at art, fashion, design and food trends, all signs direct in the same direction. We are restoring society with all the means we have.
That’s the good news.

The Squid Stories tries to catch urban and rural vibes on contemporary culture that surrounds us.
Founded in 2010, the blog started as a diary/playground/time capsule to document my inspiration-filled days and took a next step in 2014 towards Kate’s weekly report on contemporary culture.

DISCLAIMER

As my roots lie in photography, most of the pictures of this blog are my own. I’ve always been a true Nikon lover, so all photographs are taken with the beautiful white Nikon J1 or with my professional Nikon D80. Off course, being an ‘Instagramer’ of the first hour, my I-phone also serves frequently as a third black box.

Besides that, The Squid Stories carefully selects images and adds links to the original source, to give credit where credit is due. If you happen to come across an image with any missing information, please contact me to fix it.
