Why are pumpkins a recurring theme in Kusama's art?

Pumpkins are a recurring theme in Yayoi Kusama's art because they hold a special place in her childhood memories. She considers them to be a source of comfort and nostalgia, often integrating them with her signature polka dots, thus symbolically merging personal biography with her broader artistic themes of repetition and infinity.
