Just the four of us... or is that 400?

The Yayoi Kusama exhibit “Infinity Mirrors” at the Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden http://hirshhorn.si.edu/kusama/ is the hottest show in Washington this year and is almost impossible to get into. Its six mirrored rooms are fantastical and fascinating, but you have to spend about 30-45 minutes in line waiting to get into each one, after which you are allowed exactly 20 SECONDS to view it along with two other people. The museum staff have stopwatches and throw you out when your time is up. Needless to say, not a good situation for picture taking, but we did what we could under the difficult circumstances.

I wonder if this is what parallel worlds look like, or even multiverses? Great capture! Voted.

Phenomenal in so many respects. I think your photos are fantastic, even more so given all the constraints. VV

This is incredible. The show is coming to Seattle this summer, but I doubt I will go (don't like crowds, lines) - I'll soak it up from your images!
