塩田千春さんのインスタグラム写真 - (塩田千春Instagram)「#Repost @koenig.souvenir ・・・ On the occasion of Chiharu Shiota's (@chiharushiota) solo exhibition THE WALL BEHIND THE WINDOWS in the Chapel of St. Agnes, KÖNIG GALERIE (@koeniggalerie) released an accompanying booklet sharing deeper insights into the artist's practice and the concept behind the exhibition. The leaflet includes two folded posters including three exclusive postcards. For the installation, THE WALL BEHIND THE WINDOWS, Shiota endeavors to “reflect the unseen dimension of our ordinary life. It is like grasping something that is not there, but you can still feel it.” Within the space, Shiota hangs her windows within the room, but behind the windows, the wall remains. After two decades of working with windows as a material, Shiota is combining thread with windows for the very first time. While the artist fills the room with red thread, visualizing societal connections, she has placed a sewing machine at its center, conjuring the spectre of memory within the room, offering an occasion to empathize with the people that originally looked through these windows, from East to West. The artist points out that “The brick wall of the room is exposed behind the windows but engulfed in a web of connections. It is almost like a cocoon of memory.” DETAILS Publisher: KÖNIG GALERIE Editor(s): Rosalie Pfleger in conversation with Chiharu Shiota, Colin Lang Binding: leaflet (two folded posters held together with rubber band including three exclusive postcards) Pages: 8 Dimensions: 210 x 275 mm Weight: 0.2 kg Language: English Shop the booklet at our gallery store or online via link in bio! #KönigSouvenir #KönigPublication #ChiharuShiota Images by KÖNIG GALERIE © courtesy the artist and KÖNIG GALERIE」10月11日 19時20分
