Book Details

Beautifully produced monograph of the contemporary Japanese artist Chiharu Shiota, whose immersive thread-based installations have drawn crowds across the globe. This beautifully produced clothbound monograph offers a striking visual and critical exploration of the work of Chiharu Shiota (b. 1972, Osaka), the acclaimed Japanese artist known for her immersive, thread-based installations. These poetic environments – woven from vast networks of red, black or white yarn – have captivated audiences around the world, evoking themes of memory, absence and the body. Featuring a newly commissioned essay by Yung Ma and an in-depth interview with the artist, the book presents previously unpublished photographs of recent works, including a compelling series of intricate drawings. At once intimate and expansive, this volume provides fresh insight into one of the most resonant and distinctive voices in contemporary art.
