Iconic Japanese artist Yayoi (external link)Kusama(external link)'s immersive infinity rooms are coming to Canada this March(external link), and we just can't wait.
In fact, we're so excited to explore the 88-year-old artist's iconic installations that we asked makeup artist extraordinaire Kyne Santos(external link) (a.k.a. Online Kyne) to help us get lost in our own Kusama-inspired sea of polka-dots.
Do try this at home!
