What do you see in her eyes? Yoshitomo Nara has long believed that eyes form a bridge between subject and viewer, and in ‘Cosmic Eyes (in the Milky Lake)’, that idea takes center stage. With glowing irises and soft, impressionistic hues, the painting hovers between dream and reality. Here, specialist Alex Branczik unpacks its deeper meaning.

See it in our #SothebysLondon galleries from 26 February – 4 March, ahead of the Modern & Contemporary Evening Auction on 4 March. More via the link in bio. #YoshitomoNara #SothebysContemporary
