Poka-dots are a central and recurring element in Kusama's art. These repetitive patterns represent ideas of infinity, suggesting a sense of endless continuity.

‘Our earth is only one polka dot among a million stars in the cosmos. Polka dots are a way to infinity. When we obliterate nature and our bodies with polka dots, we become part of the unity of our environment’. - Yayoi Kusama

With silkscreen printing and a contemporary design, this notebook combines utility and artistic inspiration.
