Went to the 'Walking in my Mind' exhibition at the Hayward Gallery on Friday night - the highlight was the Yayoi Kusama Dot Obsession room which has been on all the posters and publicity for the exhibition. It was very cool - polka dots on all these huge inflatable shapes. There were also some other shapes on the balcony outside and she's also decorated some of the trees alongside the river. We weren't allowed to take any photos inside so I've picked this photo up from Flickr.
The idea of the exhibition was all about the minds of artists - and some of them were crazier than others! Most of them were very interesting though, but I wouldn't want to get to know Thomas Hirschhorn who had created a cave of packing tape, empty cans, porn and books about slavery. Very unsavoury!
