Cess - Y for Yayoi Kusama — The Artphabet (No Reserve)

Y for Yayoi Kusama — The Artphabet
Edition 3/10 — 60 x 60 cm

This work is part of The Artphabet, an artistic project by digital artist Cess in which each letter of the alphabet becomes a homage to great figures of contemporary art.

The piece interprets the letter Y through Yayoi Kusama’s unmistakable visual universe, one of the most influential artists in today’s art. The organic, sculptural form of the letter is presented as a fluid, almost living structure, covered with the characteristic polka-dot pattern that defines her artistic language.

The contrast between the intense red and the white dots creates a hypnotic and vibrant effect, evoking Kusama’s famous Infinity Nets and her immersive installations. The continuous, glossy surface reinforces the sense of infinite repetition, while the branched shape of the Y suggests growth, expansion and movement—concepts recurring in her work.

The piece successfully translates Kusama’s obsession with repetition, accumulation, and the dissolution of the self into infinite patterns into the three-dimensional realm. The letter ceases to be a typographic symbol and becomes a contemporary sculpture charged with visual identity and conceptual strength.

Created entirely in 3D (CGI), the work has been carefully modeled to accentuate its organic character and sculptural presence, combining digital precision with an aesthetic that recalls craftsmanship and the sensory.

The Artphabet has been internationally disseminated in media specializing in art, design, and creativity, establishing itself as a notable series within the contemporary digital art landscape.

Cess is an artist specializing in CGI, digital art, and artificial intelligence, with collaborations with brands such as Apple, Google, Prada, Vogue and MTV.

The piece is presented as a high-quality Giclée print on poly-cotton canvas, guaranteeing faithful reproduction of color, volume, and nuances of the digital original.
