This is a rare copy of An Invisible Flower by Yoko Ono, published in 2011.
The book presents an early poetic narrative originally written when Ono was 19 years old, long before her meeting with John Lennon. The text reflects themes of imagination, longing, and unseen connections, often interpreted as a prelude to her later conceptual works.
The work combines delicate text with minimalist visual elements, embodying Ono’s distinctive artistic language that bridges literature and conceptual art.
Interestingly, the narrative has often been read as if anticipating her future relationship with John Lennon, adding an additional layer of interpretation for collectors and readers.
