Yoko Ono MENDED CUPS Cup Collection

The newest illy Art Collection, MENDED CUPS by Yoko Ono, consists of six cups that bear gold, shattered and mended crack lines. These are accompanied by six individual saucers with Yoko Ono’s handwriting, naming six catastrophic events that have directly affected her life,  and others only indirectly; but have brought death to millions of people. Each saucer states the date and location of the event and concludes with the words … mended in 2015.
The seventh cup in the collection, the UNBROKEN CUP, is untouched with no cracked or mended lines, reflecting peace and hope with Ono’s handwritten words on the saucer, "This cup will never be broken as it will be under your protection. "
