Chiharu Shiota

Shiota is Japanese artist who is working in Berlin. Her own website is filled with images like the one above; shoes, dresses and windows are interwoven with black or red web wire structures. Though her own website does not offer an explanation of her work, the Berlin ARNDT website states 'Central to the artist’s work are the themes of remembrance and oblivion, dreaming and sleeping, traces of the past and childhood, and dealing with anxieties.'

I think she is pretty successful in achieveing this as I find some her installations unsettling.
