Ateleir Parsmei ‘Yayoi Kusama in the land of the Smurfs’ SS21
‘Yayoi Kusama in the land of the Smurfs’ SS21 the collection is inspired by the imaginary story of Yayoi Kusama visiting The Smurfs village. Yayoi grew up in Japan and dreamt of becoming an artist. In the fields of her family nurseries, she drew flowers and plants and stones. She imagined the world around her as streams and clusters of dots. In one of her dreams, she decided to visit The Smurf village as she was so fond of the red and white polka-dotted mushroom house, and she was a big fan of Smurfette. There she discovered a different life beyond the silk kimonos and the mountains, far from Matsumoto City where she came from. She walked in fields of flowers, looked closely at pebbles and drew them as chains of tiny cells that looked like dots. She became devoted to her dots as for her they were a way of thinking about the world among the stars. In her dream, she enjoyed spending time with Smurfette, amused by her feminine features, blue skin colour, long yellow hair, long eyelashes and her white dresses and white high heels. She looked at the Smurfs dancing and the swirling night skies, trying to solve their issues with Gargamel as if they were puzzles. Later on, she was inspired to make her red and white polka dots patterns as well as the famous Accumulation chair inspired by the Smurf’s hat.
