I had an amazing time visiting her exhibit when it came through my town. Being in the mirror rooms was really fun and her glowing glass pumpkins and squashes are playful in form and color and fun to look at.

There were unfortunately so many people who insisted on taking photos of themselves inside the mirror rooms that they would drop their phones and break the glass sculptures. How frustrating that people can't just enjoy art directly!



On the other hand, I live in Japan where photography is almost always forbidden/extremely restricted in museums, which is nice because you’re not surrounded by people taking selfies and being inconvenienced… but man it’s really annoying to not be able to take photos of things for later research etc.

Grass is always greener I guess!


I was lucky to go to an exibition in Taiwan and it wasn't too crowded, once I got back to London it was almost impossible to book / super crowded.

Look out for retrospectives in Taiwan, it's not too far to visit from Japan.
