I watched a documentary film about Yayoi Kusama this last week which I found fascinating.
She's exhibited internationally all over the world and her artwork has achieved both the highest turnover at auction in one year and the highest price paid for a female artist.
Her current exhibition at Tate Modern is sold out until it finishes in October 2021 - but if you'd like to see more of her work and find out about her as an individual and as an artist It's a programme worth watching.

Kusama: Infinity
Kusama: Infinity (1 hour 20 minutes) is a documentary made by director Heather Lenz in 2017, published in 2018 and broadcast by Arena in 2019 - and repeated last Monday on BBC4.
It's available for the next 24 days on BBC iPlayer. I'm going to be rewatching it before time is up!.
It provides an insight into the extraordinary life and world of this internationally renowned artist.
