Yayoi Kusama

Yayoi Kusama is a celebrated Japan’s contemporary artist. She has a rare condition that makes her see colourful spots everywhere. Her vision of reality is thus literally surreal and, in a sense, close to hallucinogenic. Her artwork fits Carroll’s story  in a particular fascinating way.

A very limited edition of this  book was enclosed in a Louis Vuitton’s gigantic packaged with two Yayoi Kusama signed prints. “The gigantic box was meant to make the reader feel as though they had drunk from the bottle labelled ‘Drink me’ and had shrunk to a size similar to that of a White Rabbit.”

First published by Penguin in 2012.
