Limited edition woodcut prints Red Circles by Japanese artist Chiharu Shiota, connecting the universe through red waves and circles.

Detailed information

Product detailed description


The limited edition Red Circles is part of a trilogy of Japanese woodcuts Connected to the Universe by Chiharu Shiota, building on her large-scale installations made of red threads. The threads connect the universe inside and around us through red waves, lines, and circles.

The woodcuts are printed from cherry woodblocks on traditional Japanese Washi paper, produced using a 2000-year-old technique from the bark of mulberry bushes. This high-quality paper was historically used to make balloons, clothing, and lamp shades, but its production is now rare and mainly reserved for art. Shiota incorporates watercolor pigment into the Washi fibers using a baren rubbing pad, which creates the vivid red color typical for her works.

This edition is exclusively offered as part of the exhibition Chiharu Shiota: Restless Soul at Kunsthalle Praha. The price includes the frame (see photo).

Chiharu Shiota – Japanese installation artist

Chiharu Shiota (born 1972, Osaka) is a Japanese installation artist based in Berlin, renowned for her large-scale thread installations that transform entire spaces into immersive emotional environments.

Her work explores memory, identity, and human connection. Everyday objects – keys, windows, shoes or suitcases – become part of intricate thread structures visualising invisible ties and emotional landscapes.

Among her most celebrated projects is The Key in the Hand for the Japanese Pavilion at the Venice Biennale. Her installations have been exhibited worldwide, including Kunsthalle Praha, where she presented a moving reflection on human fragility and memory.

Shiota’s work turns space into an emotional architecture that intertwines physical presence and inner memory, inviting viewers to experience the delicate tension between matter and emotion.
