Born in Tokyo in 1933, Yoko Ono left Japan to join her family in the United States after the war. Positioned between two cultures from an early age, it is no wonder that Ono felt like a “spiritual hybrid”. This sentiment was reflected in the title of her 1964 book of instructions Grapefruit, which came from the idea that a grapefruit is a hybrid of orange and lemon (in fact it is a hybrid of pummelo and sweet orange). The films and albums she made with John Lennon were hybrids of another kind.
