Hollowed rocks that look interesting in a strange way, a rugged abandoned wooden boat from which a growing tree is peering out, and vintage chairs from suburban flea markets, are some of the objects used by Chiharu Shiota, the Osaka-born artist, to construct a world that is serene, beautiful and mysterious.
She has integrated these things, which she found in Beijing and neighboring Hebei province, with the threads and dresses — two of her signature materials that have gained her popularity among the international audience — at her current exhibition in Beijing, Silent Emptiness. Curated by Yan Shijie, it is at the Red Brick Museum until Aug 31.
