- Books
Using place as her canvas, Japanese contemporary artist Chiharu Shiota creates a new visual plane in her monumental installations. She suspends networks of media, from used everyday objects to her signature red and black threads strung across entire spaces, tying individual narratives together. It is as if she is painting in midair. Come, journey with me into her universes of bellowing and dripping colors and lines.
