Chiharu Shiota
About
Chiharu Shiota is a Japanese performance and installation artist best known for creating monumental yet delicate environments.Towner has commissioned Shiota to create an ambitious, immersive installation that will pervade our entire gallery space.
You will be able to walk around the installation and inside it, entering a dense other-wordly labyrinth woven from black yarn ' woollen cocoons which arose from the artist's desire to 'draw in the air' and represent physical anxieties she has personally experienced.
Towner's commission presents a surprising new development which has never previously been seen in Shiota's practice.
