Chiharu Shiota (born 1972) is a Japanese installation artist. She has been living and working in Berlin since 1996. Shiota was born in Osaka, and studied at the Seika University in Kyoto and at various schools in Germany. While in Germany, she was a student of Marina Abramović. Shiota’s oeuvre links various aspects of art performances and installation practices. Mostly renown for her vast, room-spanning webs of threads or hoses, she links abstract networks with concrete everyday objects such as keys, windows, dresses, shoes, boats and suitcases. Besides installation works, she frequently collaborates with choreographers and composers such as Toshio Hosokawa, Sasha Waltz and Stefan Goldmann for opera, concert and dance projects. In 2014, she was selected by the Japan Foundation to represent Japan at Japanese Pavilion of the 56th Venice Biennale. In 2019, she held the largest solo retrospective show (‘The Soul Trembles’) ever at Mori Art Museum, Tokyo.
